Maze * This is small part of the maze that is harder than it looks, this was taken in the middle and would of taken too many photos to get it in. :-) It's a fraction of its original size though of 3 kilometres!!! And was layed out between 1698 and 1740 and consisted of six sections each with a different design. * 2048 x 1536 * (1.48MB)

Labyrinth * The labyrinth just beyond the grass maze is pretty cool. This is where the bouncing boards are and an assortment of other games like the pole I climbed up. Covers 2,700m2. * 2048 x 1536 * (1.51MB)

Janka on spring boards * One of the puzzels and games in the labyrinth. * 2048 x 1536 * (1.54MB)
