EPT-X ARBOPEN
Szarvasi Arboretum (Szarvas botanical garden in English) is definitely a fantastic place for disc golf. As the name says, it is a botanical garden and there will be a pop-up disc golf course built for Arbopen. Same venue has hosted Arbopen events in 2019 and 2020 and also Central European Disc Golf Championships in 2021. In 2022 it is time to bring EPT-X tour to the same beautiful place.
