For the most update information about opening of individual mazes in 2023, follow maze page and our profiles on Facebook or Instagram.
After 5 great seasons of wandering around the labyrinths looking for QR codes to time (League of Wanderers), we decided to go in a slightly different direction and bring you some new entertainment. This year, you won't be firing up our mobile app, but you'll be able to travel with Cornies around countries of the European Union!
As you know, the Czech Republic holds the Presidency of the Council of the EU from 1 July 2022. That is why this year each maze is shaped like some European country. Each maze has cities marked as if you were in that country. You will learn loads of interesting facts about the country you are visiting! Did you know that the Haribo factory in Germany invented gummy bears in 1922? Or that Belgium produces around 200,000 tonnes of chocolate a year? And puzzle of the children's game is linked to the country in question.
Do you want to become a European Union Expert? Visit 10 or more mazes and get a special reward. We are really looking forward to this summer! What about you?

Are you thinking about where to take your kids on a trip? A trip to a corn maze is a great idea, not only at the weekend! You will not only experience an unconventional adventure in the fresh air, but also give your brain and your sense of direction a workout.
Corn mazes are located in 19 places all around the Czech Republic. We have 25 unique mazes and key information about each labyrinth can be found in overview of mazes. Each of the corn mazes has an unique route plan in the shape of an European country, so a new challenge awaits on each visit. Each maze has a number of routes so you can choose whether you want to enjoy slower or longer lasting fun.
The mazes are of different sizes, some with an area from 1 to 2,7 hectares. To give you an idea about how big the maze is, imagine a size of a football field. Do you have it? Now, expand your mind and imagine that each of the labyrinths is even bigger.
There are 20 game boards for kids and 9 game boards for adults, located in the maze that are important for game for both children and adults.
Game for both kids and adults is about finding a secret.With the game especially designed for smaller visitors you would be able to guess the secret with clues you get from 20 letters found. Those are hidden in the maze by monsters, which each of them gives you one letter of clue. Solve the complete puzzle and you will be rewarded with a reflective badge. Game for adults tests besides your legs also your Czech vocabulary. In the maze there are in total 9 letters of which 6 words of varying length are necessary to complete so you get rewarded. The more letters you find, the easier it will be to complete the task. More here.
This year each maze is shaped like some European country. Each maze has cities marked as if you were in that country. You will learn loads of interesting facts about the country you are visiting! Did you know that the Haribo factory in Germany invented gummy bears in 1922? Or that Belgium produces around 200,000 tonnes of chocolate a year? And puzzle of the children's game is linked to the country in question.
It all depends on the type of game you choose, and on your orienteering skills. You can just walk through the maze or play some of our games. If you play the game, you could stay in a maze for more than 1 hour.
In addition to appropriate clothing and shoes, if you want to play games and solve the puzzle, don’t forget to take a pencil or pen with you! Along with your entrance ticket you will get a game card, where you can write the results of the puzzles.
We kindly ask all visitors to keep in mind, that the maze is located in a cornfield. Therefore, even when it rains a few days before your visit, the soil in the field might not have dried up yet. Please choose appropriate footwear, e.g. Wellingtons, or spare clothing you can change into later in the car.
Please don´t be concerned that you would wander in the maze forever. In the autumn the crop will be harvested! Seriously, in front of each maze there is a map showing the pathways, so you can get a clear picture in advance of how the maze is laid out.
We are all here to have a great time! However, all fun has to have its limits. We kindly ask visitors to walk only along marked pathways and please do not tear the corn. The corn will be eventually be harvested and processed after all. We also would like you to be aware that fire and corn leaves don’t mix. If you wish to smoke, please do so before entering the maze or, when you will find the way out, reward yourself with a winning cigarette! You are allowed to take your baby carriage and pet with you! In the labyrinth the animals are on the game boards, but your pet should remain on a leash. Thank you.
