Super Size It – The Giant Corn Maze
During the fall season, there are dozens of corn mazes in the Washington, DC area where children and families can enjoy the thrill of navigating their way out of the purposely confusing paths and dead-ends of a well designed maze.
And there’s one corn maze about an hour southwest of Washington, DC, that celebrates not only Virginia tourism, but is designed for serious “mazers”.
The maze at Cows-N-Corn, a working 300 cow, 1800-acre dairy in Northern Virginia, boasts a 9-acre corn maze. And that’s about the size of nine football fields, plenty of space to get lost perhaps for days.
The design of the maze uses the Virginia tourism slogan and logo, “Virginia is for Lovers”. And is large enough that it can probably be seen from space.
The Cows-N-Corn maze is not the largest in the U.S., that’s a 40-acre maze outside of Sacramento, California.
Besides getting lost in the maze, learn about life on a working dairy farm, pick a Halloween pumpkin from their pumpkin patch, take a hayride, watch butter being made, and don’t miss the chance to get face-to-face with a live dairy cow.
