🔥 Long routes, crowded with decoys

Hard Mazes for Adults

Hard mazes here are built, measured and rejected until they earn the label. Each has a long winding route from Start to Finish with dozens of short dead ends branching off beside it, so the wrong turn often looks as promising as the right one.

Start with a medium 20 × 20 maze, then work up to 30 × 30 and the 40 × 40 extra-large. Print a maze with a pen or pencil, or solve it on screen with a timer. A hint reveals the next few steps if you get hopelessly lost, and the full solution stays hidden until you ask for it.

Yes. Every maze is a perfect maze: there are no loops, so exactly one route joins Start and Finish. Automated tests check this for every maze on the site.

Yes, on one A4 or Letter page. Print it one per page. Walls are vector lines, so they stay crisp, but the corridors are narrow, so use a sharp pencil.
