Cornfield Labyrinth



Have you ever been to a Cornfield Labyrinth??
We have been to such a labyrinth and really enjoyed it. When we entered that area, we saw a playground for kids made of hay bales, a small cafe, a look-out tower and a lot of resting places where families held their picnic.


The labyrinth itself is in a cornfield of maybe 500 x 500 metres. There are prepared ways for walking of appr. 1,50mtr width and it took us nearly 2 hours and 3 kilometres to find our way out again. The corn was standing very high...nearly 3 metres, and so it was no chance at all to have an approximate overlook. Fortuntaley I took my GPS Unit with me and via the "tracking" function I was always able to see where we have already been. So, we did not have to spend time on trying some ways double maybe. But in the end we had to try nearly every way because we did not only have to find our way out, but there was also a "detectives game" taking place. Means: Every visitor had to find 12 stations inside the cornfield to answer questions. Everyone who solved the game takes place in a lottery and the first prize is a trip to the Euro-Disney Park near Faris/France.
We solved all the questions and now all I need is a little luck...
