Adding a maze onto your island can be a fun and quirky idea.
They look amazing, as well as offering guests something fun to do while they visit.
You can even host competitions on your island – and we’re pretty sure you’ll find one of your villagers stuck in the middle of your maze at some point. But it’s all good fun, right?
If you’re thinking about adding a maze but aren’t sure where to start, we’ve got you covered with a whole bunch of crazy mazes from other ACNH players.
(We actually featured this same maze in our Halloween ideas list, so it’s really something special!)
Add this natural-looking maze onto your island using just a few easy steps.
First, you’ll need to organize your straw fencing around whatever area you want. This creates the base perimeter for your maze.
You can then start to decorate the area with lots of yellow hyacinths to keep in with the theme, and be sure to add an arch to highlight your entrance.
Complete the look with wooden fences, shrubs, and hay bales around the area.
This basic shrub maze is the perfect addition to any island.
To make it, you’ll need to grab yourself some shrubs. You can purchase some from Leif, so be sure to talk to him whenever he visits your island.
You can then start to plant your shrubs in a maze shape, big or small. And when they’re fully grown, well, there’s your maze!
And it’s gonna look awesome. Especially once the shrubs are in season and they begin to flower.
You can also add some paintings inbetween your paths to really decorate your maze area, and of course don’t forget to add lots of trees and flowers too.
This classic style of a shrubbery maze will definitely have visitors looking for their way out, with all these winding paths and dead ends.
This style fits well with more natural kinds of islands, and great for an outdoor park area.
To make this yourself you’ll need a large open space, and make sure you have plenty of hedges to create this look.
You can organize your hedges into different winding paths in your chosen area, and then you can then lie down some custom stone paths to guide visitors through.
Be sure to add some iron benches in different spots, so your villagers can take a well-deserved break as they make their way through your crazy concoction.
This creation is a maze with a twist, where visitors can enter the maze from ground level, but they can also walk along the cliff tops.
And the theme is old-school video games!
To get started on this incredible design, you’ll need to start by building some cliffs leaving pathways in-between each one.
Be sure to add your favorite custom paths around the paths, as well as on the cliff tops. Jazz it up a bit with some really creative patterns!
And you can also add some of your favorite custom designs onto the clifftops for decoration, and of course, don’t forget to add a huge waterfall in the center of your maze.
Quickly transform part of your island into a maze-filled wonderland with this cliff build!
This one is for the more adventurous players, so if you’re up for a challenge and think you’ve got what it takes, try building your way through this complex mega-maze.
To start creating this epic maze for yourself, you’ll first need to build a series of cliffs. But be sure to leave small paths running in between, and be sure there’s actually an exit somewhere!
We don’t want any villagers trapped overnight.
You can then add some custom paths leading around the maze, along with some flowers on top of the cliffs for decoration.
