La Cumbre Golf Club (The Summit) was founded in 1924. As its name suggests the course is perched at altitude within the Sierras de Córdoba mountain range. The 66-yard par three 12th, with its tricky pulpit greensite, is where Roberto De Vicenzo carded a 12 during a tournament.

La Cumbre Golf Club (The Summit) was founded in 1924. As its name suggests the course is perched at altitude within the Sierras de Córdoba mountain range. The 66-yard par three 12th, with its tricky pulpit greensite, is where Roberto De Vicenzo carded a 12 during a tournament.
Occupying a rather constricted property that extends to no more than 75 acres, the course measures 6,007 yards from the tips, playing to a par of 70 (35 out then 35 in), with holes arranged as two returning nines, each of which finishes with a par five.
Highlight holes include the left doglegging par four 1st (rated stroke index 1 so no easy start); short par fours at the 8th and 14th (out of bounds runs along the perimeter fence to the right at both); and the double doglegging par five 18th which narrows as it approaches the home green.
