Get Lost! With nine acres of corn planted and their new mind-boggling design now created, the McCutchen family has brought the “MAiZE craze” back to South Texas again this year. The popular Mercedes labyrinth that drew thousands of visitors last fall will once again get curious maze-goers lost! Part of an increasingly popular “agri-tainment” trend, this educational and exciting family entertainment venture is joined this year by more than 160 affiliated MAiZE sites across the United States, Canada and Europe.
Experience the unique source of good farmin’ fun in this newly-designed labyrinth. Remember, though the correct pathways can be walked in under 30 minutes, most directionally-challenged visitors – adults and children alike -- will require about one hour to travel through more than two miles of twists and turns and 85 decision points.
In October The MAiZE will take on a Halloween twist...
Spooky things will be lurking in the corn of our five acre Haunted MAiZE at night!
The Haunted MAiZE is open from 8pm until 11pm on October 3-4, 10-11, 17-18, 24-25, (Thursday-Saturday)30-31 and Nov. 1. C'mon out and Get Lost! It's great family fun.
