Most of us avoid getting lost in our daily lives by using GPS directions when we drive and checking hiking trail maps before heading out into the wilderness. But there’s something challenging and fun about getting lost in a controlled environment and trying to find your way out. This is one reason why corn mazes are so popular in the fall season and a great way to test your sense of direction with family and friends. These are the best corn mazes in Georgia for a fun fall day out on the farm.
Uncle Shuck’s Corn Maze, Dawsonville
Uncle Shuck’s is an awesome fall destination, especially if you love pumpkins, great food, and a challenging corn maze. The design changes every year, but this year is special because the corn maze is celebrating 20 years. There are about four miles of trails and 15 acres of corn to explore in this maze, so expect lots of twists, turns, and even some dead ends! Every year, Uncle Shuck’s has a new maze to find your way through, with checkpoints along the way. You can work individually or as a team to complete the checkpoints. And if you get frustrated or tired, there are exits scattered all throughout the maze. Expect to spend about 30 minutes in one maze or up to two hours to complete both mazes. The cost to go through the maze is $17.
