Eternit Miniature Golf course at the Askoe Wien Wasserpark in Vienna, Austria

A look back at a visit to the Eternit Miniature Golf course at the Askoe Wien Wasserpark in Vienna, Austria.

I visited the Askoe Wien Wasserpark in Vienna, Austria on the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour in March 2010.

Unfortunately it was out of season to play the Eternit Miniature Golf course there.

Find out more.

Visit the Askoe Wien Wasserpark website for more information on the venue.

A big thank you to our friend and minigolf rival Will Donnelly for sending us these photos from his recent visit to play the minigolf course at Café Blomen in Große Wallanlagen in St Pauli, Hamburg, Germany.

It's superb getting to see different minigolf courses around the world.

Happy National Cheese Day 2025

Today is National Cheese Day!

Did you know there's a minigolf obstacle called Käse? It can be found on Eternit Miniature Golf courses.

The Käse obstacle on the Kelsey Park Mini Golf course in Beckenham

The official name of the obstacle / lane is "Schrager kreis mit hindernis" (Oblique circle with obstacle). Sometimes the obstacle is "schrager kreis mit niere" (oblique circle with kidney).

Miniaturegolf / Miniaturgolf courses (also known as Eternit / Eternite) are a type of course made using a thin concrete material. Courses consist of 18 holes made from a selection of 28 standardised designs.

An official Schrager kreis mit hindernis - this was lane 15 at Tantogårdens Bangolf in Stockholm, Sweden

Checking in the Overview for Beginners to Miniaturgolf booklet, the Käse obstacle is "erstaunlicherweise eher im norden verbreitet" (surprisingly more common in the north of Germany).

We don't have too many Eternit Miniature Golf courses here in the UK and some of those that do exist have been modified over the years.

The Miniature Golf course at Cae Glas Park in Oswestry

We have played two Schrager kreis mit hindernis holes in the UK where the obstacle was Käse. One was at Cae Glas Park in Oswestry, Shropshire, the other was in Kelsey Park in Beckenham, Greater London.

My brother Christopher recently found this cheese obstacle on the 18-hole miniature golf course at Landal Het Vennenbos in the Netherlands.
