New York City has exactly one corn maze, and it is on a working farm in eastern Queens: three acres of towering stalks with clues and puzzles leading to a lookout called Victory Bridge. It is the most harvest-season thing you can do without leaving the five boroughs. If you want a fall-foliage-adjacent family outing on the long weekend, this is it.
What to expect
Expect a self-guided walk through tall corn rows with clues and puzzle stations along the way to Victory Bridge, surrounded by the fields and animal pens of a working farm. Families make up most of the crowd, so allow at least an hour inside and arrive well before last entry.
Good to know
- Free on-site parking is available; by transit take the Q46 bus along Union Turnpike.
- Wear shoes that can handle dirt paths, especially after rain.
- It is great for kids who can follow clues; strollers are harder in the rows.
- The farm's animals and fields are around the maze, so leave time to wander.
- It is billed as New York City's only corn maze.
