Challenge yourself to the twists and turns of Wisconsin’s largest corn maze. It’s 14 ½ footballs fields of a-Maze-ing fun!
What is a corn maze?
It's an interactive outdoor game.
It's a challenge for the whole family to conquer together.
It's teambuilding opportunity.
It's REALLY fun!
Enjoy a unique experience-find your way through our 15-acre cornfield maze with over 4 miles of twists, turns, and dead ends. Challenge yourself, your friends, and family members to solve the maze and find all the clues in this mind-boggling living puzzle. There's a special prize for those persistent enough to find ALL the secret locations in the maze.
If you can find your way out, then you can relax in the beautiful fall country setting, eat some Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream, and listen to emerging artists Needtobreathe! The band will perform on an open-air stage with the fall colors as a backdrop. Bring a blanket and your friends. Don’t let Wisconsin’s fleeting autumn get away from you.
Later, try the maze in the dark—bring a flashlight. If you think it’s challenging in the day, it’s a whole new game at night! (Don’t worry; we’ll find everyone eventually when we harvest the corn in November…)
