England - Wiltshire - Three girls in Longleat's Hedge Maze

Seen from a high viewpoint, three girls jump up to see over the high hedges of Longleat yew Hedge Maze. They cannot otherwise see over the walls of foliage, so tall is the labyrinth of twisty pathways of green foliage. Made up of more than 16,000 English Yews, Longleat's spectacular hedge maze - the world's largest - was first laid out in 1975 by the designer Greg Bright. The Maze covers an area of around 1.48 acres (0.6 hectares) with a total pathway length of 1.69 miles (2.72 kilometres). Unlike most other conventional mazes it's actually three-dimensional.
