There’s something special about a crisp fall day in New Hampshire and getting lost in a corn maze might be one of the best ways to enjoy it. Across the state farms transform their fields into winding mazes filled with twists, turns, challenges, and plenty of surprises. Some are designed for serious maze masters, while others are perfect for a day of fall family fun.
The adventure doesn’t end at the corn field. Many farms pair their mazes with pumpkin patches, sunflower fields, farm animals, apples, cider and other seasonal fun.
Ready to get lost? Here are some New Hampshire farms where you can test your sense of direction and make some fall memories along the way.
Beech Hill Farm, Hopkinton
Every autumn, Beech Hill Farm creates not one, but two corn mazes, so this year’s designs offer twice the fun. The first, a nod to America’s 250th celebrates All American Firsts, challenging visitors to find foods, inventions and icons hidden on signs throughout the maze. The second explores the Wilder Side of Beech Hill, where an animal tracking adventure invites maze-goers to use a Bingo card to match the tracks of wild animals that live or hunt in the forest and fields of this 200-acre farm. Each maze takes about 30-40 minutes and offers a fun challenge for all ages. After finding your way out, reward yourself with a stop at their ice cream barn.
Open: Daily, dawn to dusk through October
Collins Farm, Bath
Get ready to put your maze skills to the test at Collins Farm, where the 13-acre corn maze celebrates America’s 250th. Now in its 9th season, the maze offers three levels of difficulty, with checkpoints to find: trivia to answer, jokes to discover and puzzles to solve along the way. Here’s a fun fact: the maze was designed by the owner entirely by eye, no pre-plotting or GPS measuring required! Ready for an extra challenge? Grab a flashlight and navigate the stalks after dark. And in October, the braver visitors can take on the Haunted Flashlight Mazes, complete with animatronics and live actors just waiting to give you a fright. For even more fall fun, mule-drawn wagon rides and saddled horse rides are available Labor Day and Columbus Day weekends.
Open: Daily, through October
Coppal House Farm, Lee
Think you know your backyard wildlife? Put your knowledge to the test this fall at Coppal House Farm, where this year’s maze is all about the chipmunk. Make your way through the 9-foot stalks of corn and find mailboxes along the way. Inside you’ll find trivia questions relating to the theme. Answer correctly and you’ll be rewarded with a shorter route, get one wrong and you might just find yourself taking the long way around. The trivia is designed for everyone from the young to the young at heart. So a little knowledge and a good sense of direction will take you far! Coppal House Farm’s maze tradition dates back to 2005, making this its 22nd season.
Open: September 12 – October 31

There’s plenty to explore beyond the maze. This fall Moulton Farm also features a sunflower field and pick-your-own pumpkin patch, free wagon rides and live music on select weekends. Get family and friends together and enjoy all the sights and sounds of a fall day on the farm.

Along the way, visitors can solve interactive puzzles and take on a hidden quest to find all the scarecrows in the maze. There’s even more fall fun on tap during two festival weekends, featuring artisan and craft vendors, food trucks, live music and plenty of spooky-season fun.
