The largest ice maze in the United States is only a short drive away. But it s much more than a maze. With all of the unique activities, this place has to offer, your family could spend the entire day here.
The Zephyr Theatre s Ice Palace Maze just recently opened and has folks from far and wide buzzing about it. Located in the town of Stillwater, it not only has the country s biggest maze, but also hot chocolate and smores, an ice bar, and even a 36 ice slide for kids of all ages.
This maze took over 500 thousand pounds of ice to make, then, a number of days to carve out the more than 1500 carefully carved blocks. It s a half-mile of twisted pathways, along with a 9 wall. Once you re able to conquer the maze, you re rewarded with the (optional) ice slide.
