The ultra-modern, tournament-ready minigolf course will be playable from October. The municipality is expecting great interest. Clubs have even been founded.

The new attraction at Lake Steinbrunn should have been officially opened today. However, the storms last week put a spanner in the works - now it is certain that young and old will be able to swing their rackets from October 12.

"Promise us lively interest"
The construction of the ultra-modern, tournament-ready 18-hole course cost 200,000 euros, 70 percent of which came from EU state funding. The mini golf course is not only an attraction for the locals, says Steinbrunn mayor Isabella Radatz-Grauszer. "In terms of tourism too - there aren't many minigolf courses in Burgenland - we are expecting a lot of interest. Many people who don't yet know our lake are sure to come." According to the head of the village, the anticipation is huge. "We've even had clubs formed in the community."

A round for five euros
During the summer, rackets and balls are available at the Seekassa. Outside of opening hours and during the transitional period, they are considering renting them from the Lakeside restaurant. "We are currently in talks about this," says Radatz-Grauszer. Adults pay five euros per round, children three.
