Are you ready to explore the best corn mazes this fall?
Let’s be honest, you do not need to be a kid to enjoy corn mazes! And while it is indeed way more fun to visit one with a little one, this fall you should definitely not skip this fall tradition. In the end, there are a lot of things you can do around a corn maze besides the simple idea of completing the maze, and if you do not want to miss out on all the fun this fall, you should start to plan your trip to the corn maze already.
Yet, sometimes it can be hard to know which ones are going to be worth your time and effort and which ones you should skip. After all, not all corn mazes are actually fun to complete, and some are also quite boring in the grand scheme of things. To help you be able to go back to this fun fall tradition and feel the nostalgia of when you were young and completing your first corn maze, we brought you some of the best corn mazes in America that you definitely need to pay a visit to too!
Let us know if you have visited any of these corn mazes before or if you plan to take a trip to any of them in the comments below!
Conner Prairie, Fishers
If you are looking for an old-fashioned yet unique corn maze in the country, then look no further than the one in Conner Prairie. The town has an old history of putting the true life of a prairie town on display all year round, making sure that they also have a huge and appropriate attraction come fall.
Sure, you can definitely enjoy the old prairie life adventures in the town all year round, from butter-churning learning to admiring the one-room schools of the past, but only in the fall can you visit their corn maze!
The reason why the Conner Prairie corn maze is famous among them is the fact that it is truly massive: the size of this maze is about 22,160 feet, and it has been constructed in such a way that it holds three different paths, each with its own adventure. The whole maze covers about seven acres of land, and believe us, this is one of those in which you can easily get lost.
If you are not into possibly getting lost in such a huge maze, then rest assured, the town and the park definitely have a ton of other fall activities you can enjoy. We are particularly fond of their hot air balloon ride, as you can easily admire the gorgeous landscape from 350 feet up in the air; the ride will also help you get a clearer look at how big the maze truly is.
You can enjoy the park and the corn maze pretty easily, as you will only have to pay an extra $4 to $5 to be able to experience the maze!
Richardson Adventure Farm, Spring Grove
If you are truly looking for an intricate corn maze, then look no further than the one from Richardson Adventure Farm. After all, it boasts to be the “world’s most intricate one,” and it is indeed quite massive: it is said to be covering about 28 acres of real corn, with all the trails adding up to 10 miles!
While the idea of having so many trails may seem impossible, in reality, the big maze is made up of four smaller ones, each with its own path and trail, along with its own checkpoints to reach, and each with its own three bridges.
The fun part about this corn maze is that it does not have any dead ends, but in order to solve this maze and the puzzle, you will need to cross off the checkpoints, which will probably lead you down the same path several times!
This maze is absolutely amazing to complete with all the family, as no matter the age of the participant, you will be able to have a grand old time.
There are simple mazes, which can take about 10 minutes to complete, all the way to the most complicated one, which can take you up to two hours to complete! Believe us, no matter with whom you are going, you will be having a ton of fun completing this puzzle!
The best time to visit this corn maze this fall is during the week, as you will be able to get a $4 discount on your ticket. Otherwise, you can expect to pay anywhere between $15 and $22 for the entry fee!
Sever’s Corn Maze, Shakopee
If you’re from the Midwest and you were thinking that all the cool mazes are not around your state, then you are in luck. One of the first and biggest corn mazes in the Midwest is right in Shakopee, Minnesota, at the Sever. This is one of the best corn mazes you can find in the Midwest, and it is a great attraction for families and people of all ages.
There is, of course, the corn maze, and during the fall there will be a fall festival that attracts all sorts of people to an authentic Midwestern fall fun fair!
Besides the corn maze, there is also a corn putt, tire mountains, all sorts of tasty fall treats and drinks, a giant slide, and live shows! You can start visiting the fall festival early in the morning, and we recommend that if you are stopping by on the weekends, you get there at 10 a.m. when it opens so that you do not have to be bothered by the crowds later in the day!
The entry fee is reasonable, somewhere between $14 and $17, with children under 4 being able to enter for free! And if you are really looking for a special attraction at a corn maze, make sure you do not miss the Pumpkin Blastr game! We’ll let you discover that one for yourself!
While we all love corn mazes, the fun puzzles have also inspired a lot of thriller and detective books. If you are traveling to any corn maze this fall, make sure you have a good book to keep you entertained on the road. This one is our recommendation!
Long & Scott Farms, Mount Dora
Are you worried your schedule will not let you enjoy the wonders of corn mazes in the fall? Then you should make sure to head towards Florida when you feel the urge to visit a corn maze, even later in the fall and even in the winter. Yes, you read that right. You can visit the Long & Scott Farms’ maze all the way in December—the 12th, to be exact!
The biggest perk of this maze is that every year they make sure to theme it so that even the most grumpy of kids will end up having a lot of fun. Make sure you keep checking their website to see which is the theme this year and keep in mind that there is way more to do in Florida than the corn maze!
If you plan to go, even in early winter, keep in mind that the best times to visit are early in the morning, to both miss the crowds and beat the warm Floridian sun! What’s more, make sure you keep an eye out for their upcoming maze events, as through November you may be lucky enough to challenge the maze under the stars!
The entry fee is just $15 based on the previous years, and if you have a kid under 4 with you, they do not have to pay for a ticket.
If you are looking for some new, fresh places to visit this upcoming fall, then do not look further! We are sure Phoenix is going to be a great fit for you, and you can read about everything that makes this city special here!
