On July 17 and 18, 2011, these clinics will be followed by two tournaments -  the Jubilee Trophy Golf Club St Moritz and the St. Moritz Open.

The golf packages will be limited to 30 guests so golfers can have personal tuition from Rocca, either booked separately or together.

The Costantino Rocca Golf Clinic (July 14 – 17, 2011) will include:

• 3 nights, including breakfast buffet;
• 2 lunches at the Chesa al Parc club restaurant;
• 2 dinners at the K gourmet restaurant and Restaurant Salastrains plus nightcap;
• 2-day golf clinic with Costantino Rocca and
• All green and match fees.

The hotel will have other golf summer options including 2-night breaks to week-long packages.

From July 23-30, 2011, Golfing at the Highest Level will allow golfers to play and compete on three courses: the 9-hole Kulm Golf and 18-hole Zuoz and Samedan courses.

Golf teacher Robert Baker will teach guests from August 27 to September 3, 2011.

First laid out in 1891, the nine-hole Kulm Golf St. Moritz course is the oldest golf course in Switzerland.

Meandering through the parkland grounds of the Kulm Hotel, past the St. Moritz bobsleigh run and the former Olympic Stadium, the golf course features stunning views over Lake St. Moritz.

At a height of 1,860 metres, this mountain par 27 golf course is one of the highest in Europe. In 2001, it was relaid and updated for the needs of today’s golfers.

The Club also has a practice putting green and a driving range and its own Club restaurant “Chesa al Parc”.

“The beauty of golf in St. Moritz and the Engadin valley is the dramatic Alpine vistas against which it is played, the fresh mountain air and the deep blue summer skies,” says Kulm Hotel St. Moritz.

The summer golf season at Kulm Hotel St. Moritz is open from June 24 until September 4, 2011.
