They built a course at Dervio on the opposite side of the lake. Fun, but out of the way for the two friends and their friends to traverse the lake for a game of golf. After more searching a solution was found: a hilly area in Grandola ed Uniti near Menagggio but most important near the homes of the two friends. For some the Golf Club Menaggio and Cadenabbia was first registered in 1903, while for others the birth of the club is Thursday, 10th of January 1907, when the official decision was taken to start a golf club during a meeting held at the Hotel Victoria in Menaggio. The Italian Golf Federation defines 1906 as the year of the club’s affiliation. We would like to give you the opportunity to discover why Mr Wyatt and Mr Mylius searched so long for this location. Join us for the Happy Holiday Entertainment Golf Day. The day will include 18 holes of golf and if the numbers are right a small mini tournament (numbers dependent).
