About this maze
A big, tricky maze with many dead ends for older children and adults. Allow a little time, and keep a pencil and an eraser handy.
Tips
- Try working backwards from the finish, since dead ends are often easier to spot from that direction.
- Use a pencil so that you can rub out wrong turns.
- Children can use a coloured pencil or a toy car, drawn in a line, to trace the path.
- Each maze is a 'perfect' maze with exactly one route, so there are no loops to confuse you.
Common questions
Is there always a solution?
Yes. Every maze has exactly one path from START to FINISH.
Can I make the maze harder?
Choose a larger size. The very large and huge mazes have many more dead ends.
