Micanopy Corn Maze


Just south of Gainesville, Florida, the Coon Hollo Farm  provides a great venue for families looking for some Halloween fun. The centerpiece of the attraction is the vast corn maze. The corn, towers of the tallest visitors, so there are no easy ways to spot an exit route. Anyone who has ever watched "Children of the Corn," probably should not visit the eerily isolated farm after dark. Guests who successfully locate the ten punch card stations hidden within the maze are entitled to a free bottle of water. The maze planner, sneakily decided to use one shape of punch hole twice, so don't think you are crazy if you cannot find 10 different punch types.

Outside the maze, hay rides enable visitors to interact with beef cows. A tractor drags the hay filled cart up a hill and past the farm house that bears an uncanny resemblance to Superman's childhood home, before stopping in a field so the cattle can eat the the passengers seating !

Parents and kids can go head to head on pedal carts while energetic youngsters let off some steam on the tough looking obstacle course. After enjoying the caloric burning activities on offer, guests can re-energize with some freshly boiled corn and popcorn.
