With 3 hours (or more!) to explore, it’s easy to wonder where to start at Brantwood Farms. We’ve rounded up every activity included with your Fall Festival admission — plus a few insider tips — so you can make the most of your visit to Paris, Ontario’s favourite fall destination.
The Can’t-Miss Activities
Giant Jumping Pillows Our jumping pillows are the first thing most kids beg for, and honestly, most parents end up on them too. Bounce, flop, and giggle your way into the fall spirit.
Character Corn Maze Wind your way through our themed corn maze, searching for characters hidden along the path. It’s part scavenger hunt, part maze — and a favourite for kids who love a challenge.
Mini Maze Not quite ready for the big maze? Our Mini Maze is a gentler, shorter version perfect for younger farm-goers building their confidence.
Tractor Go-Karts Little ones (and let’s be honest, plenty of big ones) love pedalling around the track in our tractor-themed go-karts. It’s one of the most photographed spots on the farm.
Brantwood Express Train Ride Hop aboard for a scenic ride around the farm — a relaxing way to see the property and give little legs a break between activities.
Wagon Ride Climb into the wagon for a classic fall hayride experience through the farm grounds.
Games & Challenges
Obstacle Course Test your speed and agility on our farm-themed obstacle course, built for kids of all ages.
Corn Pit Think of it as a sandbox, but filled with corn kernels instead — a farm classic that kids can dig into for hours.
Apple Sling Shots Take aim and launch apples toward a target. It’s one of our most popular activities for a reason — who doesn’t love a good sling shot?
Super Slide Climb up, slide down, repeat. Simple, fast, and always a hit.
Spider Web Climber Kids can test their climbing skills on our web-style climbing structure.
Pumpkin Bowling Trade in the bowling ball for a mini pumpkin and see who can knock down the most pins.
Cereal Box A farm-favourite balancing and stacking challenge that’s trickier — and more fun — than it looks.
Slow Down and Explore
Forest Play Area A shaded, natural play space where kids can explore at their own pace.
Forest Scavenger Hunt Grab a list and head into the trees to find hidden treasures scattered through the forest.
Low Ropes Climbing Area A beginner-friendly ropes course that builds confidence (and lets kids burn off any leftover energy).
Bubble Bar Because no fall festival is complete without giant bubbles floating over the farm.
Farm Animals Meet the animals that call Brantwood Farms home — a gentle, easygoing stop that’s perfect for younger visitors or a mid-visit breather.
Tips for Making the Most of Your Visit
- Arrive early. With last entry at 4pm, coming in closer to 10am gives you first crack at the jumping pillows and corn maze before the crowds arrive.
- Wear comfortable shoes. Between the maze, forest trails, and obstacle course, you’ll be on your feet — good sneakers make all the difference.
- Pace yourselves. Most families plan for 3 hours, but with 18 activities plus the Farm Market, it’s easy to stay longer. A Season Pass ($45 + HST) means you don’t have to fit it all into one trip.
- Save the Farm Market for last. No ticket required, so it’s a relaxed way to wrap up your visit and pick up some farm goodies on your way out.
