About

Created from more than one million living, growing maize plants, York Maze is one of Yorkshire’s biggest family days out – and home to the largest maize maze in Europe.

This award-winning countryside attraction near York offers far more than a maze. With over 20 rides, attractions and shows, it is a full day out for families looking for outdoor adventure, active play, laughter and plenty of places to get lost in the best possible way.

Visitors can bounce on the Popcorn Pillow, tackle climbing zones and slides, enjoy family shows, explore themed mazes, or slow things down with sand and water play, crazy golf, remote boats and gentler games.
