Eight Circuit Renewal Labyrinth

    Walking the winding path of a labyrinth for meditation, relaxation or just to get answers has become increasingly popular. This ancient ritual has many architectural possibilities today from concrete paths to stone paths to portable labyrinths.

    A labyrinth is an ancient symbol of wholeness - a metaphor for life's journey. It combines the imagery of the circle and the spiral into a single purposeful path leading to a center.

    The Renewal Labyrinth is built of all natural products from our property. The mulch is made from fallen trees on our property. The fieldstone path was designed using stone from our environment. Historically property owners made low walls of rock to identify property lines. It was stone from these markings that was used in the building of the labyrinth.

    The Country Place invites guests to enjoy the quiet solitude of a labyrinth walk and reflect on the beauty of nature.
