The Hedge Maze is a type of Maze found in ornamental gardens with walls made out of hedges, often found on the grounds of a Bright Castle, Haunted Castle or Big Fancy House. They are generally perceived as mysterious and magical, and sometimes foreboding, and if one is mentioned in a story chances are at some point the characters will have to find their way through it, perhaps while being chased or trying to beat the Villains to the center. The hedge maze often doubles as Mobile Maze and the paths paradoxically seem to move around as you're trying to navigate it. In the center is what the maze is protecting, often something magical and valuable that The Hero needs. In mystery stories, you can count on finding a corpse in one of these. Since they're almost always a part of the gardens of a country house, you can expect the usual country house doings to be brought into it. Somebody seeking privacy goes there so as not to be disturbed, only to be permanently rendered past disturbing by a killer. Clandestine meetings are arranged, again often in the center of the maze, for important private conversations (like, say, blackmail). Lovers go there for a rendezvous. There's a house party scavenger hunt or village festival on the grounds, and one or more of the revelers goes inside. There may even be more than one trip inside the maze, especially if there's a reconstruction of the initial crime and/or a trap set for the killer. The hedge maze was a must-have part of Western European gardens in the 16th and 17th centuries, including Hampton Court Palace in the UK. You can see maps, photos and engravings here. Mazes in general, but especially the hedge maze, tend to be symbolic of navigating the subconscious and discovering the self. While overcoming the maze, the character confronts their own darkness and fears. A subtrope of The Maze. Compare The Lost Woods and Lost in the Maize. Not to be confused with Hedge Mage. |

Rollercoaster Tycoon and its sequel allow you to build these, either to a preset design or custom-made. Unfortunately, they're coded to rely on the same somewhat iffy pathfinding AI used by guests to get around the park, rendering more elaborate designs Awesome, but Impractical. | |

Discworld: In Men at Arms, we're told Bertholt Stuttgart "Bloody Stupid" Johnson's contribution to the art of hedge mazes was to build one for the Patrician's Palace so small people get lost looking for it. BSJ was also responsible for the hedge maze at Sto Lat Castle, as described in Mrs Bradshaw's Guidebook to the Ankh-Morpork and Sto Plains Hygenic Railway. This one is more conventional in size, although has been closed to the public after a group of visitors, having survived for several days on people throwing sandwiches over the hedge, had to tunnel their way out. It includes several circular paths that may have actually been coffee rings on the original plans. |

Super Mario Bros.: Super Mario Galaxy has one planet covered entirely by hedge mazes in which you have to chase rabbits there to obtain the Power Star. Paper Mario 64: Mario has to navigate a hedge maze in Flower Fields to find Rosie so he can trade her a Crystal Berry for a Water Stone needed to save a dying flower named Lily. Mario Kart DS: The Special Cup track Peach Gardens features a segment that goes through a hedge maze inhabited by a Chain Chomp and which has grassy floors that damp the drivers' speed. There's also a topiary of Mario, which comes as no surprise. It makes a return in Mario Kart Wii, Mario Kart Tour and the DLC of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe as a Nostalgia Level; in the latter two games, topiaries of characters like Luigi, Toad, Toadette and the host Peach herself are present as well. Mario Party DS: The minigame Hedge Honcho has all characters, in their reduced size, navigate through a sequence of miniature rows of hedges to each a pond. In each row, each player has to remove the obstructing leaves by sliding them to a specific side with the stylus. If a bee is posed in one of the leaves, the player has to wait until it flies away, as touching it will provoke the bee and attack the player, stunning them for a brief while. If it's a ladybug, it has to be rubbed several times with the stylus to remove it. Whoever reaches the pond first wins; if five minutes pass and no one gets there before then, or if two characters do so at the same time in Duel mode, the minigame ends in a tie. |

The Shining. The Overlook Hotel has a rather large hedge maze. Wendy and Danny are shown exploring it midway through the movie and Danny's insane father Jack stalks him through it in the finale. Having had the chance to explore it earlier, Danny lays a false trail in the snow to get Jack Going in Circles until he gets lost, eventually freezing to death. | |

Martin Mystery has an episode where Martin have to battle a spectre-possessed Diana in a hedge maze, in a Shout-Out directed at The Shining. Although it does raise some questions that since possessed Diana could fly, making audience wonder why can't she just hover above the maze and destroy Martin from an elevated position. | |

Nigel conducts him there, and during their conversation: "Morgan suddenly realized it was almost symbolic of the dilemma he now faced: convoluted, enigmatic, with new and unforeseen difficulties around every turn. Except that there was a way out of the boxwood maze." | |

The House With a Clock in Its Walls: In The Vengeance of the Witch-Finder, Barnavelt Manor in Sussex, England has one of these; it was originally made with the intention of having the guests go in from the road side and find their way through to the side closest to the manor's front door, though Arthur Pelham "Pelly" Barnavelt hasn't kept it up in years, thinking it's silly to have your guests get lost this way. There's also a trick to it, as if you keep one hand on the hedges to the right, you'll always find your way out. There's also a stone bench in the center, marking a square hedge with a stone tomb inside holding a malevolent spirit familiar answering to a 17th-century ghost. Lewis accidentally releases said familiar, causing a great deal of trouble before he and Jonathan can banish it back to the other side. | |

The Ciaphas Cain novel Choose Your Enemies features a hedge maze in the local governor's orbital residence. A retainer teaches Cain's party the "childishly simple" trick to reaching the center and getting back out, but it still has a reputation for mysterious disappearances. The governor is actually the leader of a Slaaneshi cult that carries out sacrifices in the maze, and Cain has to go in there to stop them summoning a daemon. The hedges progressively mutate into Meat Moss as they get closer to the ritual site. | |

Mario Party DS: The minigame Hedge Honcho has all characters, in their reduced size, navigate through a sequence of miniature rows of hedges to each a pond. In each row, each player has to remove the obstructing leaves by sliding them to a specific side with the stylus. If a bee is posed in one of the leaves, the player has to wait until it flies away, as touching it will provoke the bee and attack the player, stunning them for a brief while. If it's a ladybug, it has to be rubbed several times with the stylus to remove it. Whoever reaches the pond first wins; if five minutes pass and no one gets there before then, or if two characters do so at the same time in Duel mode, the minigame ends in a tie. | |
