Udine is a fantastic choice for golfers who want an Italy golf holiday with culture, countryside and proper Friulian flavour. Set in Friuli Venezia Giulia, between the Adriatic and the Alps, it gives you a lovely mix of elegant city streets, wine country, mountain views and easy day trips. The wider province includes Carnic Alpine scenery, historic villages, lakes, forests and the beaches of Lignano Sabbiadoro, so there is plenty to build around your rounds.

The main nearby course is Golf Club Udine in Fagagna, just a short drive from the city. Founded in 1970, it sits in the Friulian moraine hills close to San Daniele and Udine, with 18 holes laid out across 63 hectares in a peaceful, green landscape. The course has a relaxed but refined feel, with mature trees, rolling ground and views towards the Carnic Alps, making it a strong option for golfers who enjoy scenery as much as scorecards.

For extra variety, the wider Friuli Venezia Giulia golf scene works brilliantly, with seven 18-hole courses located within 100 km of each other. Castello di Spessa in the Collio hills is another standout, offering 18 holes among vineyards, olive groves and gentle countryside.

Away from golf, Udine is perfect for aperitivo evenings, historic piazzas, local osterie, Friulian food and wine tasting. Hashtag Golf Travel can help shape a tailor-made Italy golf holiday around Udine, Collio wine country, the Adriatic coast and the best regional courses.
