Hedge Maze

Explore the largest permanent hedge maze in the Southern Hemisphere!

Tucked away in the town of George, in the Garden Route, is one of the most remarkable attractions in South Africa. The maze consists of seven strawberry stations, a 25m underground tunnel and a look-out point – found within 10km of pathways. The hedges are grown from over 30 000 Syzygium Paniculatum plants.

The Redberry Farm Hedge Maze was planted in 2010, and only opened for public in 2013. It took 3 years for the trees to grow to an appropriate height to be classified as a maze.

Your goal is not to navigate your way to the exit, like in a traditional maze, but rather to find all seven strawberry stations hidden inside and to stamp your maze card with the unique icon at each station. You can claim a reward at the end only if you present your maze card stamped with the seven unique icons.

Booking is not required, tickets are available from the Farm Stall.
