Play areas like the Enchanted Forest trail and the Kids Barn are also popular with little ones looking to learn, discover and have fun.
Citrouilleville
Where: 560 69e Ave., Saint-Zotique, QC
Citrouilleville houses a massive cornfield and a fall fair to be remembered. The maze takes you on a fantastical journey, and the rest of the attraction features carnival games, bouncy castles, face painting, a tractor ride, and, of course, the pumpkin patch. You’ll also want to snap some pictures at the vintage photobooths and explore a village made entirely of pumpkins.
Ouimet Farms Adventure
Where: 63 Main St. W., Vankleek Hill, ON
Ouimet Farms is a working self-titled “agri-tainment” farm that boasts a seven-acre corn maze. Each year is different, with 2026’s design commemorating the 150th anniversary of the invention of the telephone, and celebrating how communication and technology have changed over the years. After you’ve solved the maze, bounce on the jumping pillow, take a pedal kart for a spin and pan for treasure at the gemstone mining station.
Mountain Orchards
Where: 10175 Clark Rd., Mountain, ON
The team at Mountain Orchards, a popular apple picking spot, uses their annual corn maze to give back to the community. Each year, the farm collects donations for a special cause and designs its maze with that fundraiser in mind; this year’s edition supports CNIB Guide Dogs. Use the smell of delicious cider donuts to guide you past wrong turns, then grab a bag of fresh apples at the farm store or pick your own from the wide varieties that the orchard offers.
Proulx Farm
Where: 1865 O’Toole Rd., Ottawa, ON
Proulx Farm is a fixture in the Cumberland community, a place where families have made memories for over 100 years. Form some of your own as you work together to solve the zigzagging pathways of the corn mazes. The farm’s annual Pumpkin Fest also features U-pick pumpkins and a variety of activities for kids, including wagon rides and a petting zoo.
La Belle de Coteau-du-Lac
Where: 75 Rte. 201, Coteau-du-Lac, QC
Celebrate the Halloween season at a corn maze where you can choose from three different experiences.
For families with children, the daytime excursion is ideal for capturing adorable photos at the farm's photobooths. Adults and teens can visit the Abominable Labyrinth, the nighttime experience where terror waits around every corner. If you want a spooky aesthetic but hate jump scares, consider visiting on an evening without scare actors, when the only surprises are the Halloween sound and light show illuminating the maze.
