high country maze and gardens, goughs bay

Looking for an adventure a little further afield? Put The High Country Maze on your list! Located just a short 15-minute drive from Mansfield, this is an ideal outing for the whole family. Make sure to fuel up at the on-site café before your adventure begins. They offer a variety of kid-friendly options, delicious grazing platters, house-made quiches sourced from their own veggie garden, and freshly baked scones!

Venture into the expansive hedge maze and try to reach the centre (bonus points for not losing the kiddos). Keep an eye out for the cheeky gnomes hidden throughout the hedges too - if you find them all, you'll score yourselves a special prize!

Beyond the maze, there are beautifully manicured gardens, sculptures, and topiaries to discover, along with giant chess and checkers perfect for some strategic showdowns. The picturesque lawns also make for a perfect spot to enjoy a picnic, so don't hesitate to pack your own lunch.

Before you leave, you can treat yourself to a refreshing icy pole or take a stroll through the art gallery located on the grounds. Day made!
