・Try to look for paths heading towards the center of the maze, where the chest usually is.
・Edges of the maze typically lead to an exit. Try to avoid these so you don't have to start over!
・Load an earlier save file to generate a different maze layout.

Solve Hedge Maze as Soon as You Find One

Hedge Mazes tend to disappear after being found. The best way to prevent a hedge maze from disappearing is to finish one as soon as you find it.

Reload Previous Save

If a hedge maze has already disappeared and isn't appearing anymore, try reloading a previous save file before discovering the hedge maze.

Check Other Hedge Maze Spawn Locations

Hedge mazes spawn at the 5 designated spawn locations across the map. Check these 5 spawn locations to see if any mazes spawn in these areas.

Progress Story to Change Season

Hedge Mazes reappear when the season changes in-game. Try progressing through the main quest to advance the season.

Only PC Mods Allow Season Changing Post-Game

Once you've reached the post-game, you will be unable to change the season anymore. There are, however, unofficial mods for the PC version that allow you to change the season at will.
All Seasons Differences

Safely Ignore Them

If all else fails and you are unable to make hedge mazes spawn, fret not, since these are not tied to 100% game completion and are not required for any trophies/achievements.

Anyone solve the missing hedge mazes mystery? All my mazes have disappeared from my map. I had icons for them at one point and now they are gone. I’ve tried restarting from a save point but it hasn’t helped.
