Reds Way

REDS WAY

The labyrinth, which dates back about 4,000 years, involves following a single path to as central goal. Unlike the maze, no choices have to be made.

This labyrinth is named “Red’s Way” in memory of Ned Kelly’s father, Red, who is buried in the Avenel Cemetery.

To quote an anonymous writer of the 17th Century
“........to and fro.
Caught in a labyrinth you go.”
