LABYRINTH

THE LABYRINTH

The Labyrinth located in the field just south of the Miner's Memorial, is a walking meditation, a maze of sorts. In keeping with the natural aspects of the park, the labyrinth path is lined by wildflowers and grasses. The history of this particualr labyrinth pattern dates back to the 12th century. Visitors who walk it are invited to contemplate on their own spiritual life journeys, pause in the middle to think and reflect ... then walk out by reversing the journey. From the entrance to the center gazebo is measured at .71 mile, or just under 1.5 miles form beginning to end.
