Amaze Richmond - Maze & Cafe

Take an easy 30-minute drive from Hobart and find yourself at Amaze Richmond in the delightful Coal River Valley.

Amaze caters for all ages and abilities with two incredible mazes.

Hedge Maze

The challenge in the Hedge Maze is not just finding your way out, but discovering all 31 of the native Tasmanian animals hidden throughout the many winding paths of the multi-cursal maze.

The hedge is grown from pittosporum and took over 6 years to reach the current height of more than two metres.

Our Head Hedge Horticulturalist - Chris - spends days pruning and tending the hedge every season to ensure it is in tip-top condition.

Timber Maze

Uppie's Timber Maze is a different adventure.

There are codes to crack, a hidden tunnel, and a lookout that gives you a commanding view of the site. And the maze itself is a bit more complex, with the wooden walls not giving away any hints as to which direction you might be facing.

But beware, there are doors that can be opened and closed to change the paths in the maze - so it is probably going to be different every time you visit!

Amaze caters for all ages and abilities. The mazes and the facilities are pram and wheelchair friendly. We have lots of outdoor seating, and maze tickets give you all-day entry.

THE CAFÉ

After all that activity, the café can provide you with some welcome refreshments. Enjoy a delicious meal or snack, expertly prepared by our Head Chef, Ben Coleman, and his talented team. Ben's focus is on simple food done spectacularly well. Of course, he also features locally sourced Tasmanian produce, and there will always be some interesting specials on our menus that will satisfy both foodies and families alike.

If the sun is shining - and it often is in Richmond - then we highly recommend just relaxing on the deck with a glass of wine and a grazing platter while you enjoy the fabulous vibes of the countryside, and the kids play good old-fashioned games on the lawn.
That sounds like a win-win to us!

Our generous 80-space carpark takes the hassle out of parking, and then it is a short walk across the covered walkway to the Maze Entry and Café.
