Fall is in the air, which means lots of apples, cider, and the tradition of finding your way out of a corn maze. Forcing oneself to become lost certainly seems like a strange way to spend an afternoon, but it’s definitely one of the most fun things to do with family and friends. For this adventure, we are presenting you with seven great corn mazes in Maine. Once you’ve made it out, you should treat yourself to a cup of apple cider and a doughnut!

Entry fees are very nominal, and folks at Treworgy Family Orchards promise that it's not meant to be scary and all will have fun.
Part of the fun at Zach's Farm Maze is the 20-minute hayride to get there. The maze itself is located across 17 acres of corn fields. If you're looking for a little extra fun, look out for their evening flashlight tag nights, which are always so much fun for the entire family!
