La Boulie (La Forêt)
Inaugurated in 1968, La Forêt at La Boulie occupies slightly flatter terrain next to the historic La Vallée layout, with tree-lined holes offering a little more shade and an easier walk when the sun is out in the middle of summer.
The course extends to 6,122 metres from the back tees, with par set at 72 (36 out then 36 back). Water comes into play at three holes: a small lake separates the greens at the par five 3rd and par five 14th and another pond protects the front and right side of the home green.
Highlight holes include the first (and shortest) of the par threes at the 122-metre 2nd; the severely right doglegging 10th (which is also the longest of the par fives); and the left veering par four 15th which runs parallel to the 10th but is played in the opposite direction.
