A MAZE IN CORN
Get outside, get active and head to
A Maze in Corn Amusement Farm
where there's something for all
ages. Enjoy a bird's-eye view of the
Manitoba Prairies on the two-hour
zip line tour between seven towers.
Little ones love the petting zoo, while
visitors get in their daily exercise
navigating Canada's longest-
running corn maze. A can't-miss is
the 15-foot-tall Bale Pyramid — one
of the most popular and largest
"biodegradable" play structures in
Manitoba made with over 300 giant
bales. Pick out that perfect jack-o-
lantern in the Great Pumpkin Barn,
offering one of Manitoba's largest
pumpkin selections. As the moon
rises in October, the creatures of the
legendary Haunted Forest come alive
at A Maze in Corn.
Open daily, August to the end of
October. Please check the website
for the hours of the various attractions
within A Maze in Corn.
