Mazes

Labyrint Drielandenpunt - Netherlands

This page is to document and map mazes. These probably require aerial imagery or SiRFstar III devices.

For information, see  Maze and Proposed features/maze.

A maze has multiple paths that can be taken to an exit. A labyrinth only has one path, that typically spirals from the outside to the middle. Sketchplanation on the difference

Often there may be "emergency exits" that can be used to leave the maze or labyrinth without going all the way round.

Tagging

Mazes are presently tagged with both attraction=maze and leisure=maze.

The proposal for attraction=maze Proposed features/maze was not discussed but is in use.

The tag leisure=maze is also used but the tag was not formally proposed nor approved.
