We love a good maze! What a better way than to spend a long summers day than a picnic and a maze. I have put together a list of mazes and labyrinths that you can visit that are within an easy reach of the North East, I have calculated the distance from The Angel of the North as I think this is a pretty central spot in the North East and most people know where it is.
