Get lost in a maze!

Barsham Maize Maze

Mazes are popular with kids and adults alike. On a nice day, getting lost in a maze is great fun and a chance to enjoy some fresh air and physical activity. Many of the mazes below offer additional attractions such as gardens, play areas and cafés, so it’s easy to make a full day of it.

Barsham Maize Maze

New for 2026 is the Barsham Maize Maze on the West Barsham Estate, near Fakenham. The largest maize maze in North Norfolk, it has a nature theme and features a large viewing platform with views over the River Stiffkey valley.

There’s also a countryside themed play area with vintage games and ride-on tractors, a nature trail and a pop-up café. For the grown-ups, the Barsham Brewery Taproom is just a short woodland walk away. It looks a wonderful addition to Norfolk’s maze scene.

The Pumpkin House

Not far away, The Pumpkin House at Thursford, just off the A148 between Fakenham and Holt, opens its six acre maize maze in July. Every entry includes a maze map and a word search challenge, with a small prize for children who complete it, and you can go round as many times as you like. There’s mini golf too, plus drinks, ice creams and homemade cake, and dogs on leads are welcome.

The Goat Shed

Closer to Norwich, the Goat Shed at Honingham grows a giant themed maize maze each summer, complete with a scavenger hunt style trail to crack. Younger visitors can take on a mini maze and a pedal kart circuit, and there’s a Field of Fun with a giant sandpit, mud kitchens and tractor tyres to climb. The award winning farm shop and kitchen are well worth a visit, and you can meet the resident goats too.

Wroxham Barns

Also near the Broads, Wroxham Barns at Hoveton includes a maize maze as part of its summer offering, alongside its junior farm, fun park rides, animal encounters and famous foam parties. Entry to the maze is included in the main admission price.

Hirsty’s Family Fun Day Out

Close to Great Yarmouth, at Hemsby, is Hirsty’s Family Fun Day Out, home of the Hemsby Mega Maze. As well as the maize maze itself, this offers a zip wire, go-karts and a crazy croquet course.

Priory Maze & Gardens

Priory Maze & Gardens

If you’re looking for a more traditional maze, there’s a small one at Priory Maze & Gardens, just outside Sheringham. This is one of our favourite places in Norfolk. Set amongst the most splendid gardens, it’s a place of real beauty and tranquillity, and there’s a café too.

Somerleyton Hall

Somerleyton Hall (just outside Norfolk, near Gorleston and Great Yarmouth) has one of the finest yew hedge mazes in Britain, planted back in 1846 and set within beautiful gardens. The route out is around 800 yards from the centre, but most visitors find it takes rather longer to solve the maze’s mysteries!

Wizard Maze & Play

Sadly, Wizard Maze & Play at Metton, near Cromer, has not opened this year and its long term future is yet to be decided. We’ll update this page as soon as we know more.

NB: Always check websites before setting out, as most of the mazes listed are only open seasonally.

If you know of any other mazes in Norfolk, please let us know. Thank you.
