Did you know that the World’s Largest Maze is located right here on Oahu?
The Dole Plantation, located in Wahiawa near central Oahu, first opened as a fruit stand in 1950. The maze, constructed in the shape of a huge pineapple, was built in 1998 and later expanded in 2007. It’s featured in the 2008 Guinness Book of World Records. It covers more than two acres of land and has close to 2.5 miles of paths.
Once you enter the maze, you’re given a game card and a map. Be sure and take the map because it can get quite confusing from the inside of the maze on which path you should take. There’s eight secret stations scattered throughout the maze. The object of the game is to find these eight stations and stencil the item on the back of your game card. If you’re going with a group, this can be quite fun to find out who can make it back to the entrance with their game card filled out in the least amount of time.
After spending about an hour or so inside the maze, check out the rest of the plantation, browse around the store, and have some fresh squeezed pineapple juice.
