Shown and described as equal to the hotel itself (No.14), the Hedge Maze is an eerie space.
The entrance shifts depending on which scene it’s shown- in No.14 and No.26 it’s shown in a different place than when Danny runs in during The Maze sequences.
There’s a conceptual linking with the internal maze model (No.26): Wendy and Danny walk through the actual maze while Jack stands over the model in The Lobby, communicating control and at the very least “oversight”.
Conceptually, the height of The Maze mimics the halls of The Overlook, specifically The Green Hallway (for obvious reasons).

The daytime visit and nighttime chase give the maze two different forms of play and pursuit.
