The Hidden Trails Corn Maze is a family farm that entered into the corn maze business with their first corn maze in 2001. They have had a different corn maze each year, with a spectacular image that can be seen by the birds and the planes in the air! In 2001 the maze was a fish scene, in 2002 it was an eagle flying, in 2003 it was a barn, silo and windmill scene, in 2004 was a buck and fawn, in 2005 the corn maze was a scene of farm animals, and in 2006 it was a barnyard scene. They haven't released the 2007 picture, but you can be sure that it will be equally amazing.

The hours for the Hidden Trails Corn Maze are as follows: Monday thru Thursday they are open from 1pm-6pm, Friday and Saturday they are open from 11am-7pm, and on Sunday they are open from 11pm until 6pm. Guests can enter the trail up to 15 minute prior to closing time, which means you can stay till you find your way out! As the sun goes down, more staff will circulate through the maze to help you find your markers and eventually your way out.

The maze is set up with several check-off markers located throughout it. You will be given a maze card that shows where the maze runs and where the markers are. It sounds like it would be simple, but after running through the maze for only a few minutes, you can become completely disoriented. For the serious maze hunters, bring your compass to realign your direction. After you have found all the check-off points you can then find your way to the exit. Never fear, if you feel lost of need some help, just start yelling and someone will come help you!
