Liberty Mills Farm offers corn maze choices: tracing a tale in the Story Maze, learning fun facts in the Trivia Maze, completing a punch card at various stations in the Hole Punch Maze (the longest path) or navigating the Mystery Maze (the most difficult) with no clues or map to guide you.

The corn maze at Sinkland Farms spans 5 acres with 6-foot-wide paths that cut every which way. The farm offers a map with points of interest within the maze. Once visitors find their way out, they can enjoy a hayride, pig races, and picking out a pumpkin in the patch.

Family-owned Cox Farms boasts one of the largest and most popular seasonal events in the Northern Virginia area. Their fall festival in Centreville features a multitude of attractions from hayrides to slides, as well as their aptly-named Cornundrum. This corn maze contains a number of diversions, including a vortex, caves, pirates, and more.
