The Maize Maze

This year's theme is mazetrap - Earth is under attack!!! From the "Rise of the Junk Monsters"
Formed from piles of junk that humans have discarded, these mechanical morons are mashing and mauling our precious planet. Join forces with our "experts in the field", Renegade the Agri Hero and his gifted daughter Faith. Help them search for the power to shut down the monsters and gain the knowledge that will stop them from returning.

Find your way through the amazing Maize Maze, specially designed for Briarlands Farm by Mazemaker Limited. The naturally grown maze covers an area of 5 acres and reaches a height of over 6 feet, creating pathways that will enthral, disorientate and infuriate.
