This Corn Maze And Bakery With Seasonal Goodies Are The Perfect Pair For A Fall Day Trip In Pennsylvania

With life moving at such an incredibly fast pace, we don’t always have a ton of free time to squeeze in everything we want to do. That’s what makes a daytrip, especially during fall, absolutely perfect. We can pack a whole lot of fun into a single day. Even if you only have a few hours, you’ll find that this corn maze and bakery make for the best fall day trip in West Chester, Pennsylvania.

Spend a day at the farm – or Highland Orchards in West Chester, to be exact – at its beloved Fall Fest Weekends, an epic autumn event that promises fun for the whole family.

If you’re up for a challenge, start your visit at the five-acre corn maze. Hop aboard the shuttle for the approximately 15-minute ride to the corn maze and other fall fun.

Most visitors take around an hour to find their way out of the corn maze, which has multiple exits, so you never have to worry about getting lost. If you had a ton of fun escaping the first time, why not go again?

You can go through the corn maze as many times as you want during your visit.

After you’ve escaped the corn maze, try your hand at shooting apples from the apple cannons. Admission to the corn maze includes the shuttle ride, the corn maze, and three apples. You can also purchase a 15-apple bucket.

Save some time to go on a 15-minute scenic hayride, and to stop by the pumpkin patch to pick pumpkins.

All of that fall fun is sure to kick your sweet tooth into overdrive, which makes a stop at the bakery a must. While you can buy freshly baked apple cider donuts at the orchard all year, there’s just something special about digging in during the autumn.

Stock up on other goodies, including freshly baked pies, from the bakery and fresh produce, bread, jams, and apple cider at the farm market.

Find more information on the official website of Highland Orchards. Or, stop by the Facebook page of this fall destination in Pennsylvania.
