The Great Maze

The Great Maze – The Ultimate Fall Adventure

Opening: Labor Day Weekend, Aug 30th – November 6th
Location: West Acres Mall parking lot, Fargo, ND

Hours:

Monday–Thursday: 2:00 PM – 8:00 PM

Spanning 1–2 acres, The Great Maze is one of the most accessible fall attractions around. Built with beautiful white cedar plank walls, it offers an elevated, long-lasting, and immersive maze experience. For years, we were known for our towering straw bale maze. This season, we’re thrilled to unveil a new design featuring 7-foot cedar walls that still deliver the same epic challenge and family fun, with a few exciting upgrades. Bonus: We’re aiming to break a Guinness World Record as the largest cedar wood maze in the world.

Unlike your average corn maze, you can’t see through the walls or cut through the stalks—no shortcuts here! With narrow, winding pathways, the average time to complete the maze is 45 minutes to an hour, giving the same challenge as a traditional corn maze but with a fraction of the walking distance.


Whether you’re racing through the maze, exploring the corn pit there’s something for everyone. It’s a perfect way to kick off fall and make memories with family and friends.
