This seems to work for me (translated to vimscript for a .vimrc):

augroup minimap_group
    " get rid of existing
    autocmd!
    autocmd WinEnter * call CheckSkipMinimap()
augroup END
function! CheckSkipMinimap()
    let l:mmwinnr = bufwinnr('-MINIMAP-')
    if l:mmwinnr == -1
        " no minimap window
        return
    endif

    if winnr() == l:mmwinnr
        " Go to the other window.
        wincmd w
    endif
endfunction

Preventing entering the minimap does unfortunately also seem to prevent using the mouse in the minimap for scrolling though.
