The Hedgend Maze

For Yarra Vally's Best Family Mind Games


You are here: Home | Mazes | Hedgend Maze

The Hedgend Maze is another one of my suggestions for a great Family Getaway.

Situated on the outskirts of the beautiful, quaint township of Healesville.

There are all sorts of different things to do there to create a totally fun filled family daytrip.

Hedgend Maze Entrance

The Giant Maze is the main attraction and hidden throughout the tunnels of Cyprus hedge there are special clues to solving the puzzle.

There is a Secret Message to reveal. I will give you a little tip though...the left or the right hand rule gets you out of the Maze, however, watch out as you wander around as the clues are placed everywhere.

Read the instructions thoroughly because if you miss a clue you won't be able to solve the puzzle.

Once you have made your way through the giant Maze you can try your hand at solving the Mural puzzle game.

This is a colorful, hand painted mural depicting all things Aussie and is situated under the Lookout Tower.

Try finding all the things that have been disguised throughout this painting.

I loved this puzzle and had a great time with my granddaughter trying to complete the puzzle.

Now comes the real mind blowing brain teaser, the original Rainbow Puzzle Maze.

Yes it is possible to solve the complete puzzle, I'm afraid it beat me.

SuperNan was beaten, I didn't get past the second stage...but then again I can't do jigsaws either.

By the way, check this out...This is a great book all about the mazes of the world.

Mazes Around the WorldMazes Around the World...From England to Egypt, Greece to South Africa and beyond, travel on an exciting journey as you discover the secrets of these intriguing patterns.

If you enjoy a game of draughts, then have some fun playing on the giant draughts board, it's not as easy as it looks.




Valley MountainsOn the 1st Saturday of each month why not take the family to the Maze for a "Hedgend"- Family Fun Day where you can enjoy...

Years ago when I was studying Industrial Chemistry and there were two girls in a class of 48 boys, the Chemistry Department had to enter a contestant into the Miss Caulfield Tech' Contest.

Even in those days I was a bit of a dare-devil, so I put my hand up...didn't win...never mind.

I think that was the best time I had studying Chemistry at the Tech', because...

Here I was introduced to the amazing world of Car Rallying.

The next couple of years were filled with so much fun, every weekend setting off on one more Rally adventure.

Guess what I found out?

Hedgend Maze have their very own Car Rally.
