To solve this maze, we need to find a path from the leprechaun (START) to the pot of gold in the center.
Let’s think step by step:
1. The leprechaun starts at the top, just above the maze entrance marked with a purple arrow labeled “START”.
2. We must move through the white paths only — not through the black walls.
3. Our goal is to reach the green pot of gold with coins on top, located right in the middle of the circular maze.
4. Since it’s a maze, there are many dead ends. We have to try different routes until we find the one that leads straight to the center without hitting a wall.
Here’s how to trace the correct path:
- Start by going DOWN from the START arrow into the first opening.
- Then turn LEFT and follow the path as it curves around.
- Keep moving forward, turning when you hit a wall — always staying in the open white space.
- You’ll go around the outer ring, then spiral inward.
- At some point, you’ll take a path that goes toward the center instead of continuing around the edge.
- Follow that inner path carefully — avoid branches that lead back out or to dead ends.
- Eventually, you’ll reach the very center where the pot of gold is waiting!
Since this is a visual puzzle and I can’t draw here, imagine tracing your finger along the correct route: down → left → curve around → sneak inward → zigzag through the middle layers → finally arrive at the pot of gold.
The key is patience and checking each turn — if you hit a dead end, backtrack and try another way.
Final Answer:
Follow the path from START downward, then left, winding through the maze’s corridors while avoiding dead ends, until you reach the pot of gold in the center.
