Eden High Wycombe launches the UK’s first cardboard ‘Eco Maze’

The ultimate family fun is coming to Eden High Wycombe this summer with the introduction of the UK’s first ever cardboard maze. Kicking off Wednesday 24th July, the Maze made completely from cardboard will offer visitors an exciting exploration activity filled with secret passages, challenging obstacles, and surprises around every turn.

Hosted by Eden’s very own Maze Master, the Eco Maze will run over a six-week period, until Wednesday 4th September, and will feature a different sporting theme each week, inspiring families to get active and enjoy a memorable summer of sport alongside the Olympics... and who knows what it will inspire your children to get in to!

Weekly sporting themes will include:

· Week 1: Eco Obstacle Course – Crawl through eco-tunnels, duck and dive under ceiling twirlers, and conquer eco-hurdles.

· Week 2: The Big Sporty Scavenger Hunt – Follow a trail to find hidden sports kits around the maze. Collect letters to spell out a word and enter to win a sporting prize.

· Week 3: Time to Dribble – Navigate the maze with a mini football and score a goal at the end!

· Week 4: Going for Gold – Search for hidden medals and count them for a chance to win a sports bag filled with summer goodies.

· Week 5: Trash Can Basketball – Make a slam dunk before entering the maze and completing challenges along the way.

· Week 6: Mini Golf Maze Time – The maze transforms into a mini golf course. Collect your putter and golf ball to put as many hole-in-ones as possible.

Eden’s Eco Maze will be located outside Black Sheep Coffee. Pre-registration is required (here), with bookings opening one week in advance (17th July). Guests must check in at the event.
