Year Round Golf
The climate in Italy is ideally suited to year-round golf. Average winter temperatures in southern Italy
average 14C.
Currently in Italy the turnover of the sector is
about 350 million euros.
Currently in Italy there are 200 golf courses,
a figure considered too small by the Government,
especially given that the international tourism linked
to the sport generates a
turnover of 28 billion euros and produces a
positive effect in terms of employment, with
about 700 thousand jobs created, providing a
revenue of 14 billion euros.
According to industry statistics, every golf course,
on average, provides job opportunities for 100
people, not to mention the employment
opportunities arising from the works of construction
of facilities and accommodation attached.
According to data from Palazzo Chigi, who chose
our country to take a golfing holiday is aged
between 54 and 65 years and spends an average
of 90 euros per day (excluding room and board)
against 53.83 of the other tourists.
The lovers of the green and holes are people who have considerable financial resources and
whose passion for this sport in Italy, produces a turnover of around 350 million euros, while in
Europe the figure is around 50 billion euros.

A tourist market, one related to golf, which grows continuously throughout the world, reaching a
rate of 8 per cent per annum, with 25 million tourists who annually travel to play.

In Europe, the increase in the number of players in the last 15 years shows an increase of 108%,

clubs with regulations 9 to 36 holes, 43 facilities that offer promotional fields from 3 to 9 holes and 59

Golf development Investment. Why a stand alone
Golf Course - A closer Look - Orvieto - the
landscape

Take Umbrians and Etruscans, both sides of the river
Tiber. And then – again – Romans, Lombards,
Guelphs and Ghibellines, mercenaries, kings and
emperors, popes and cardinals. Mix them together
well for three thousand years.
Add the most inspired artists, the sons of the land and
those who were attracted like a magnet to this land
and its beauties. Serve on a dish of hills covered with
vineyards and olive groves, bordered with the greenest mountains, these scored with
enchanting valleys.
Flavour with a few wild corners, where nature still dictates and animals roam free, quite
undisturbed by humans. Moisten all with the
impetuous waters of the Marmore Falls. Season
with the strongest and most genuine flavours your
palate can taste.
Decorate with the Chant of Francis, the Monk who
found here his deepest inspiration.
Here we are, everything is ready. The Province of
Terni, from the Nera Valley to Orvieto, is a
surprise recipe.
If Umbria is the green heart of Italy, the
Province of Terni represents its most
successful synthesis.
In a not so vast territory, within a few kilometres
from one another,are found the intense green of the Appenine mountain woods, those of ochre
tones, and the colours of the cultivated hillside lands typical of the countryside of central and
Southern Umbria.Then, in the middle, the valleys scored by the main rivers in the region – the
Tiber and the Nera- which, with the lakes, mark and distinguish the Province of Terni almost as
if it were water, surrounded by land. The river parks of the two most important water
courses, guarantee total immersion into the world of nature, with the Alviano oasis, the
valley below the Corbara Lake, kingdom of migratory birds, and above all the stunning
Marmore Waterfalls, created by the ancient Romans which, throughout the course of centuries
have enticed special tourists – artists, poets and writers who have sung of its “horrid beauty”.


Appealing tourist attractions:

Most relevant are: Pienza, Montepulciano, Torrita di Siena, San Quirico d'Orcia,Chiusi,
Cortona, to say few, while Orvieto remains the main attracion of the Terni provence

Orvieto

At about 25 km away. The city of Orvieto, in symbiosis
with the tuff cliff on which it stands, is an outstanding
example of integration between nature and man.
Awareness of this relationship between nature and
architecture is expressed explicitly, as the inscription
affixed to the famous well of St. Patrick which reads
"quod nature munimento inviderat industry adiecit"
clarifying precisely, that "What nature had denied to the
defense - in this case water - the added human activity. "
Visiting this city is like going through the story, because
we can find, layered and concentrated, the traces of all
ages for almost three millennia, from the findings that
testify to its Etruscan origins and medieval Renaissance to the many testimonies. In addition to the
Cathedral of Orvieto, a masterpiece of Italian Gothic, are to visit the Well of St. Patrick's was built
between 1527 and 1537 and designed by Antonio da Sangallo the Younger. The Fortress of
Albornoz was in 1364 and was built by the Cardinal of the same name. The Belvedere is the
Temple of the fifth century. BC, the People's Palace, built around 1157 is in Romanesque-Gothic
style. Seven of the Palace was built in the thirteenth century, one of the more important
magistracies of the city. The Town Hall was built during the establishment of the Free Town, in the
late '500 subjected to a radical restoration of Hippolytus by Barefoot. Numerous other buildings and
monuments, make this unique city.
