Experience a New England corn maze! From now until November, visitors can tackle a number of mammoth mazes throughout New England which offer a range of thrilling corn-filled adventures.
The Murder Mystery Corn Maze
The Davis Mega Mystery Maze, located in Sterling, Massachusetts, puts an interesting spin on navigating corn mazes, as it also offers a murder mystery challenge. Visitors will need to hunt down and interrogate suspects, whilst navigating their way through the many twists, turns and bridges (including the world’s only double-decker bridge). Those that take on the maze will test their mental and physical abilities by completing challenges including a zip line, sling-shot and rope course. The solution to the murder changes every day. The maze is open until 12 November 2012. https://www.davisfarmland.com/megamaze/index.html
The Great Vermont Corn Maze
Located on a dairy farm in North Danville, Vermont, this giant corn maze features an entirely new maze design each year. The towering walls of corn reach over 12 feet high and cover 10 acres with three miles of trails. Visitors can make a day at the farm by taking a picnic and leisurely experiencing the other activities available including hundreds of underground tunnels, an animal petting area, the world’s first Barnyard Golf and the new Kid Village. www.vermontcornmaze.com
Moonlight Mazes
For those brave enough, the Pumpkin Valley Farm Moonlight Maze, located in Dayton, Maine, is a six acre labyrinth of twists and turns that can either be explored by moonlight or with flashlights. The maze has a new design every year and this year’s adventure is ‘Fun on the Farm’. The Moonlight Maze will be open on 27 and 28 October. www.pumpkinvalleyfarm.com
