Golf Club Biella Le Betulle is an 18-hole parkland course at Magnano in Piemonte. The club's official site gives the course as par 73, 6,534 metres and 7,146 yards and credits English architect John Morrison. The club was formed in 1956 after Franco Bocca, Angelo Guabello and Franco Buratti assembled more than 70 hectares from roughly 170 local landowners.
Morrison visited the site in the winter of 1956 and considered its existing landforms particularly suitable for golf. Construction followed in the late 1950s, with the course opening in 1958. The routing occupies the Serra moraine landscape at an elevation of about 1,936 feet and is characterised by its woodland setting.

The Associazione Golf Club Biella Le Betulle was constituted on 18 September 1956. Franco Bocca, Angelo Guabello and Franco Buratti had spent months assembling more than 70 hectares of fields, meadows and woodland around Magnano, purchasing the first parcel on 12 October 1956. John Morrison inspected the land during the winter of 1956 and saw its existing contours as particularly well suited to golf.
Morrison's routing works with the natural morphology of the Serra moraine rather than imposing a heavily manufactured landscape. The mature woodland and existing undulations became central characteristics of the finished course.
The club reports that Il Mondo del Golf's Top Ten Award ranked the course first 18 times, second six times and third four times over 29 editions.
Le Betulle remains an 18-hole, par-73 course measuring 6,534 metres, with clubhouse accommodation and restaurant facilities.
