The Maryland Corn Maze is located at Sunrise Farm in Gambrills. This fall attraction is known for its 8-acre corn maze that changes themes each year. The theme for 2025 is "Get Lost in the Land of Oz." This "wicked maze" will feature posts with QR codes to scan with your phones in order to play a game as you make your way through the twists and turns and dead-ends of this labyrinth of cornstalks. Don't worry, you won't get too lost — there will be staff in the farm's watchtower looking out for folks and will help you find your way if you need it.

For more of a spooky experience, purchase your corn maze ticket for one of the flashlight nights. Just bring your flashlight and try to make your way through the maze in the dark at night, with only the light in your hand illuminating your path. It's spooky fun!

While the corn maze is a huge draw to the farm in the fall, it's certainly isn't all this it has to offer. There more than 30 attractions, including climbing structures, hay rides, zip-lining, a bounce pad, a petting zoo, jump pads, sling shots, pedal tractors, and a whole lot more!

There are plenty of fun photo ops as well. Perhaps you'll want to take your seasonal family pics on the giant chair, in the stockade, or in pumpkin-land. The photos alone are worth a visit to MD Corn Maze!

You should also bring some money for some delicious fall foods, too. Treat yourself to carnival foods like corn dogs, homemade apple cider donuts, apple cider slushies, kettle corn, fried pickles, edible cookie dough, pizza, cotton candy, and several other fun eats.

And of course, you'll want to clear some trunk space for a pumpkin or two, whether for baking or decorating. A fall trip to the farm just isn't complete without pumpkins!
