Golf courses in Bucharest

Bucharest is the natural starting point for golf in Romania, with a small but accessible scene of two courses set in the flat, open countryside that surrounds the capital. For visiting golfers, the appeal lies in combining a city break in one of Eastern Europe's most energetic capitals with a relaxed, uncrowded round just beyond the urban edge.

Selas Golf & Polo Club and Bucharest Golf Club give the area its golfing identity, offering parkland-style golf within easy reach of the city's grand boulevards, lively dining scene and historic core. This is a region for the curious traveller rather than the dedicated golf-trip purist: courses are quiet, green fees are typically gentle, and the warm continental summers make the months from late spring to early autumn the most rewarding time to play. Pairing a round here with sightseeing, Romanian cuisine and the wider attractions of the country makes Bucharest a low-key but genuinely enjoyable golfing base, and an easy introduction to the game in Romania.
