THE
February 5, 2026, Minigolf Course Taunus

The mini-golf course at Hirschgarten is beautifully designed and located in the middle of the forest. And if you like, you can even watch deer while you're out on the course ;)

Go on a sunny or clear day. There is a relatively steep ascent to reach the viewpoint so wear good shoes and maybe have a walking stick.
