Get Lost This Fall in the Best Bay Area Corn Mazes!
One of fall's most fun traditions is the corn maze, so gather up the kiddos and get lost (not permanently, of course) in one of these masterpieces of misdirection. While the prospect of finding your way out of a maze of tall cornstalks may be a little intimidating, there's usually help in the way of maps that can be purchased for an additional fee. Some mazes even have elevated viewing platforms so you can see how far you've gone, and many also have easier versions of the labyrinth for younger kids to try out.
Here's our guide to the best corn mazes in the North Bay, the San Francisco Bay Area, and beyond, all of which are offered in conjunction with a Halloween pumpkin patch. These locations all have plenty of other fun activities, so make a day of it! Hours and prices are correct to our knowledge, but make sure you check before you go.
