Skyline Mini Golf at the Walker

I have to give it 5 stars because we do come here as a family every year, but could def use some more love (maintenance on 'holes' and the rooftop floor needs to be tapped back into place so it's not a trip hazard in some spots - it is starting to feel like just a money maker they don't care about anymore, it used to be fun to see a new hole creation each year). When the weather is nice and you have views over the city it's perfect.

NOT YOUR MOTHER'S MINI GOLF! Skyline Mini Golf is a little wacky and unconventional compared to your average mini-golf, but if you're a mini-golf fan, it's a must do! Pay at the front desk at the Walker Art Center and then take the elevator to the 7th floor to play. An attendant will give you your club, ball and score card there. There are a wide selection of ball colors to choose from, which makes it fun. I chose neon pink. :) One huge attraction of this mini golf is the fact that it's on the rooftop and there are views all around of the city. The first play was using your club as a cue on a billiards table to direct the ball into the pockets/holes. (See my photos). Another play was tipping a tilt table to get your golf ball around a maze and into the hole. I failed miserably at that one! It's a pretty short course, but very different, very artsy. Don't expect it to be anything like you've played before. We played the 10 holes for $12 (Summer 2024). The reason for 4 stars and not 5? It's short and almost so wacky, that it doesn't feel like mini golf.

Giving it an extra star because we went on a perfect weather day. Between the views and the breeze, it was lovely. The actual mini golf is alright. Some holes are much more interesting than others. If we didn’t have a slow group in front of us, we could have played the entire 10 holes in 20 minutes without rushing.

Not much of a mini golf experience: 10 holes each that are mostly tiny (10’x10’) and mostly focused on art. Long lines and busy crowds leads to a lot of waiting around

This was fun! We did the mini golf in about 30 mins and my kids loved it! Its a unique course with small holes, full of art. Prices are cheap! Parking is easy in, easy out. Plan to walk around the sculpture garden too!
