Royal Park I Roveri: 2026 Access and Booking Update
Set within La Mandria regional park outside Turin, Royal Park I Roveri is one of Italy's finest parkland complexes, founded by the Agnelli family around a Robert Trent Jones Sr design that has hosted the Italian Open. Here is where it stands in 2026 and how to play it.
The news: a championship pedigree in the Turin hills
Royal Park I Roveri enters 2026 as one of the most respected golf addresses in northern Italy, a 36 hole complex with a genuine tournament pedigree set within the protected landscape of La Mandria park outside Turin. There is no new course to report, and the appeal is the quality and the setting, two strong 18 hole layouts on the doorstep of the Alps.
For 2026 the story for visitors is access to a course that has staged the Italian Open in recent memory, hosting the national championship from 2009 to 2011 and other professional events since. That championship history, combined with the parkland conditioning and the backdrop of the mountains, keeps Royal Park near the top of any list of courses to play around Turin.
The course itself
The original course at Royal Park I Roveri was designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr and opened in 1971, founded by the Agnelli family of Fiat fame. The Trent Jones layout plays as a par 72 of around 6,950 yards, or roughly 6,560 metres, with a second 18 holes later added by the American architects Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry.
The Trent Jones course is classic strategic parkland, routed through mature oak woodland, the trees that give the club its name, with water in play and the firm, fast greens the architect favoured. Set against the Alps within La Mandria park, it combines genuine championship demands with one of the more beautiful settings in Italian golf.
How to play it in 2026
Royal Park I Roveri welcomes visitors and green fee play, and its position around 15 kilometres from central Turin and close to the airport makes it an easy course to build into a trip to Piedmont or the Italian lakes. As a club with two courses, it can accommodate societies and golf groups across the complex.
On cost, green fees are set seasonally by the club and vary between the two courses and the time of year, so rather than quote a figure that may have moved, confirm the current visitor rate and availability directly with Royal Park when you book. Late spring through early autumn offers the most reliable conditions for travelling golfers.
Our take
Our take is that Royal Park I Roveri is the standout championship round in the Turin area and a course that rewards the trip out to La Mandria park, combining real tournament pedigree with a beautiful Alpine setting. The Trent Jones course in particular is a serious test that holds up against anything in northern Italy.
If you are planning a 2026 trip, pair Royal Park with the courses of Piedmont and the lakes for a northern Italy itinerary that mixes golf with food, wine and scenery. Aim for the firmer summer and early autumn conditions, and confirm tee times in advance given the club's profile.
