Nothing symbolises Summer as much as a Maize Maze and Sunflower Trails. The bright yellow flowers popping up above the crop against a clear blue sky is just lovely to see. And when paired with a fun trail sheet of things to find while getting lost in the maze its a great little, normally low cost activity for children.

Some of the mazes places can be simply a farmers field as the sunflowers help pollination for their other crops. While some places add extra activities and fun to make it a good few hours trip out for the family.
