hedge maze
Garden path puzzle
A hedge maze is a labyrinth formed by tall, dense hedges with pathways between them, designed as a puzzle to navigate.
Visitors try to find their way to the center or exit while encountering dead ends and false turns.
Hedge mazes appear in formal gardens and estates, sometimes dating back centuries: We got hopelessly lost in the hedge maze at Hampton Court.
