If you are looking for fifteen acres of fun, then you will want to stop by Cherry-Crest Farm in Ronks, Pennsylvania, which is near Hershey, Pennsylvania. Cherry-Crest Farm is the home of the original corn maze which they named "The Amazing Maize Maze".
The first maze was opened to the public in 1996 and the theme was Steam Railroading. The maze was constructed in the shape of a locomotive. Each year there has been a new theme. Some of the past themes have included "Noah's Ark", "Old McDonald's Farm" and "Lost in Oz". The maze contains over 2 ½ miles of pathways and spans across five acres.
When you are finished with the maze, there is a still lot to keep you entertained at Cherry-Crest Farm. The Courtyard offers food, fun and tours. You can challenge yourself in the Rope Maze or try the Goat Walk. You can take a guided tour around the farm in a wagon or spin your wheels with the pedal karts. If you are craving a snack, you can stop for some luscious fudge, hand-dipped ice cream or fresh corn roasted to perfection.
The Barnyard offers a Giant Hay Chute Slide, Lil' Farmers Play land or enjoy the Singing Chicken Show. There is even a Barnyard Jump that is akin to a gigantic pillow that you can jump on.
If none of those activities strike your fancy, the Cherry-Crest Farm is open year round as a working Dairy farm. Cherry-Crest Farm will help to bring the country into your soul.
