Cherry-Crest Adventure Farm Description
Get a good night's sleep before you visit Cherry-Crest Adventure Farm and its five-acre corn maze, the Amazing Maize Maze. With more than 2.5 miles of trails, the best-case scenario is that it's going to take you an hour to get through, although some have taken five hours. That's OK -- there's a snack shack and bathrooms inside the maze, plus a few places to sit and rest.
In addition to the maze, there are dozens more attractions on the farm, including a petting zoo, the Barnyard Jump bouncy "pillow," obstacle courses, hayrides, pumpkin tosses, the Lil' Farmers Playground, and a singing chicken show. The fudge shop and Home Cookin' Cafe keep everyone fueled for maximum play time. Or, bring a picnic and enjoy it under the tents in the Barnyard area.

Kid Tips
Toddlers & Pre-K: There is a tiny version of the maze set up with hay bales. Forego the big maze and enjoy the other activities on the farm, including a stuffed animal workshop.
School-Age Kids: Run, run, run! When they get tired, you can always take the emergency exit out of the maze. Still, you may be surprised at the motivation of making it all the way through.
Pre-Teens & Teens: Perfect for older kids. There are a number of challenges and clues inside the maze to make it even more fun.
Planning Notes
- Wear comfortable shoes and bring a jacket. This is a huge maze. It's fun and well-planned, but you're going to be walking around -- a lot. In the fall, it's chilly.
- Keep hydrated. Bring water in with you, or stop at the snack shack inside the maze. All of that walking outdoors can leave you and the kids parched.
- Take the train. During much of the day, you can take the Strasburg Railroad to and from Cherry-Crest Farm -- a fun way to merge two attractions. Combination tickets available.
- Don't rush it. The last entrance to the maze is 90 minutes before closing, but allowing more time to finish takes the pressure off.
