Elemental Maze – . Atraditional maze constructed of reed walls and containing five secret gardens themed around the Elements – Earth, Air, Fire Water and the Garden of Reflection! Everyone can play the new and improved Elemental Challenge, a quiz designed for all ages, as they find their way through and out the maze. The 10 station quiz is changed each week and the maze has 12 internal doors that allow us to regularly change the internal flows and the optimal solution. Average playing time is 80mins. For those not in a rush take a seat on the benches in each garden and enjoy them. Everyone who completes the Elemental Challenge wins an ice-cream from the Coffee Shop. Please note that no children under the age of 12 are allowed into this maze without adult(no, a 13 year old cannot supervise a group of naughty 9 year olds!). supervision!

Rope Maze – a great team event that has you racing around a spiderweb of coloured ropes - appeals to all ages. We now have 2 of these fun mazes! Picture of labyrinth in the foreground, rope maze and indigenous maze in the background.
Labyrinth – a meditative meander with a teaching sun-dial at the centre. We have a new Labyrinth just completed that combines the ancient with the classical. Pink crystals adorn the centre spot
Indigenous maze - can you follow the rules AND find your way out? Looks easy but is deceptively hard to solve.
Six Minute Mazes – five unique logic puzzles design to test your strategic thinking and mind-mapping skills. Our new Maths maze in foreground, one of the 6 minute mazes.
Planet soccer - a target shooting game, see picture above
Bocce -invented in 5200BC and still fun today! Bocce for the average players is very simple. There may be anywhere from two to four to eight players on a team. Each player is given two balls (boccia). Each player must then take turns rolling (lagging) the ball toward the pallino ball (the smallest ball), which has already been thrown onto the field. (Deposit required for use of the balls)
Wobblers - Test your balancing skills by trying to wobble the ball into the centre of the labyrinth design. Great for all ages! Maize Maze – OPENING 6TH FEB - theme for 2010 - SAVE OUR WORLD. See Maize Maze page for new flyer and information! Children having fun in the Maize Maze, though it is definately a challenge for all members of the family!
