Cowtown Cattlepen Maze

We all had a good time on this balmy Christmas Eve! Fun way to get out a bit and get a little cow town time in. Wish the prize was in theme. :)

Yay, I’m a fan! For $ 6 bucks you get about 20 minutes of fun if you’re really good at this type of activity. I would definitely return with a larger group to amp up the fun factor.

Popular for kids and the young-​at-​heart, this wooden maze has an overhead platform where their parents and other passer-​bys (like myself) can stand to watch them struggle through the maze. The signs posted inside the maze to urge them to find the exit are hilarious. I believe it’s $ 5 (?) admissions but we skipped it because the maze was crowded by the time we checked it out. It looks fun though!

The Cow Town Maze is Awesome! I think it was $ 5.00 or $ 6.00 per person. No biggie.
The folks that run it seem kinda crabby but that’s ok. My 16 year old and I separated in the maze and it took each of us about 25 minutes to get out of it. The maze has mean signs all over the place that say things like «wrong way» or «nice to see you again».
They sell bottled water before you go in for $ 1.00 — buy two of them. It’s hot and you don’t get much shade.
You can take little kids but if you do it keep them with you or let them loose and go stand on one of the taller vantage points and tell them which way to go.
Only minus one because they could have more misters in the maze. Heat stroke is not conducive to helping you make good time in the maze.
If you are in Ft. Worth I would recommend a special trip just to do the maze. It’s fun and the stockyards surrounding it are a good time too.

We did this to kill some time. It was pretty fun to try to find the letters and your way out. However, I think $ 6 admission is a little too pricey for this type of maze. When you finish the maze, they let you pick out a toy. lol The maze is tricky, so dont be fooled.

Much more fun than it initially appeared, the kids had a blast working their way around the cattlepen searching for letters M-​A-​Z-​E throughout the maze. The observation deck offered parents/​grandparents as much fun watching the kids as the kids had running around.
Well worth the admittance fare as long as the weather plays along.

$ 6 for for 17 minutes of innocent fun
I honestly didn’t know $ 6 could bring me so many mixed emotions. I was anxious, terrified, and delighted all in a span of 17 minutes. Those 17 mins felt longer than a bikini wax. Like others have said, you enter the maze with an objective and can’t exit until you have completed it. I kept getting lost during closing time and the owner had to guide me out. He seemed annoyed and irritated butI don’t blame him. I was seriously going to be trapped in there because I couldn’t the last letter.
If you find yourself in the stockyards, skip half of the gift shops and do this maze instead.

CHEAP FUN!
My friends and I were tour (ist)ing around Texas, searching for entertainment. Lo and behold, the most stereotypical, touristy attraction you can find: the stockyards. Here we found this maze, where herds of little kids in matching daycare shirts ran back and forth like cattle in a small wooden box while their guardians cheated and guided them from above the maze.
The goal? To find four hidden letters M-​A-​Z-​E and then exit in the shortest amount of time to win aMAZEing prizes such as this ridiculously bouncy ball, or a rubber snake.
I can’t say I wasn’t the oldest person in that maze, but hey, gotta live like you’re young to stay young right?
Next stop: abandoned train tracks and mechanical bull!!!

Are you lost? This Texas-​sized Human Maze is a great and fun activity!
I brought my friends visiting from California and my 9 year-​old little sister for the maze challenge. We drove all the way to the Stockyards for this maze. For a $ 5 admission fee, you have to find all four letters to spell out maze for a prize in the end. Will you get lost? Yes. And all the walls end up looking the same, but it’s so fun to do with your friends! It took us about 17 minutes to complete. The prizes aren’t amazing, but my sister loved it. Definitely a great way to kill time while having fun!

a-​maze-​ing! I actually came with my brother and my boyfriend. My boyfriend and I were visiting my family in Texas and I decided to drag both of my favorite guys in my life to Funkytown to check out this maze. I’ve never been here and actually never even knew about it. When you first get to the maze, you may honestly think it’s a kid thing and it’s probably easy. But no. There’s actually a game to it and to finish and make it out as quickly as possible is actually really fun and alot harder than you would think. I would totally bring more friends/​family to come check it out. Very cute. Oh, and they have water misters for the Texas heat.
