Starting August 1st, the Verger Labonté team invites you to confront cosmic challenges in one of three extraordinary GALAXIA-themed labyrinths. This year, lifesize enigmas will enhance the interplanetary experience in each corn and wooded maze, proposing physical, mental and logical challenges adapted to different age groups. Escape room enthusiasts and nature trail lovers are sure to find this adventure enticing!
“For close to 15 years, Verger Labonté has developed an expertise in building giant mazes, explains owner Nathalie Gervais. We were the first in the region to offer this kind of immersive and grand experience and we surpass expectations every year. You would think these are crop cicles, but no… our labyrinths, games and the decor are all man-made and created!”
GALAXIA-themed mazes propose three levels
Kids, teens and adults will find this activity both stimulating and interesting to try whether it is alone, as a family or as a group. The mazes and challenges will require participants to test their various strengths.

Thanks to you, the free beings of the galaxy will learn that they are much stronger when they work together!
S.O.S.!: An enemy cruiser is hot on your trail! You can’t afford to get captured! Without your leadership, the young Alliance of Free Beings shall surely perish prematurely, and with it, the last hope for the galaxy. A daring hour and a half pursuit across space is afoot! Will you join the adventure?
