Founded in 1921 and designed by the Scot Arthur Morgan Davidson, then aged 20. Despite the fact that it was his first job, the club is the most beautiful in Brazil, and the course is ranked in the top 50 of the world. The club is located between the Pedra da Gávea and the Parque Nacional & Floresta da Tijuca, almost 900 metres above sea level. It faces São Conrado beach. Although a short course (6,000 yards and par 68) it is tricky and challenging to play.
