Golf Du Luberon is one of Provence’s most authentically natural and strategically demanding golf experiences, set within the rolling landscapes of the Parc Naturel Régional du Luberon near Manosque. Opened in 1988 and designed to blend seamlessly into the rugged Provençal terrain, the 18-hole par-72 course winds through lavender fields, pine forests, vineyards, ravines, and rocky hillsides with panoramic views stretching across the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. Unlike many modern resort layouts that favor length, Golf du Luberon is a true thinking golfer’s course, where elevation changes, sloping lies, and carefully positioned hazards reward precision, intelligent club selection, and disciplined course management.
For passionate golfers, the club’s appeal lies in its distinctly Provençal identity and its refreshing resistance to over-commercialization. Every hole feels integrated into the natural landscape, with dramatic ravines, elevated tee shots, and constantly changing terrain ensuring no two holes play alike. The course is especially admired by experienced players who enjoy tactical golf and creative shot-making rather than simply overpowering a layout. Beyond the course itself, the relaxed clubhouse atmosphere and the terrace restaurant overlooking the fairways and the Valensole plateau complete the experience, creating the feeling of a hidden golfing retreat deep in southern France. Many golfers consider Golf du Luberon one of the region’s understated gems, a course that quietly delivers some of the most memorable and authentic golf in Provence
