About Katameya Dunes Golf Club
_no_3.jpg){kind=link}
Katameya Dunes Golf Club in New Cairo has 27 holes laid out by Nick Faldo, arranged as the Lakes and the Palms courses. The Lakes, the lead layout here, is a par 72 desert-style design with sculpted fairways, water and bunkers, routed across dune land. Five tee positions give every level of golfer a suitable length.
- The practice area has a driving range, putting green and chipping area, and the clubhouse includes a restaurant and a bar.
- Faldo Design framed the project as a desert oasis over duneland.
- From the back tees the Lakes course measures more than 7,400 yards.
- A golf academy with teaching professionals offers lessons.
History of Katameya Dunes Golf Club
Faldo Design was selected to create Katameya Dunes in early 2006, working with the architects Schmidt and Curley on a 27-hole desert oasis concept. The result sits inside the Katameya Dunes community, where The Westin Cairo Golf Resort & Spa also stands.
