New Hampshire in the fall season

Woodstock, Vermont
Central Park in New York is magical any time of year. In winter the park is covered in a blanket of snow and hosts ice skating rinks, summer has the thick foliage and outdoor concerts and spring is festooned with wildflowers. Fall has its own special beauty. This is when the leaves start to turn and show off their brilliant colors of flaming red, warm orange, bright yellow and even purple. You can witness this kaleidoscope of colors anywhere in the park but some special places are The Mall, by the lakes when the colors reflect on the water, Bethesda Fountain and the park entrance on 59th Street. The best time to see beautiful autumn foliage in Central Park is in the second and third weeks of October.
One of my favorite Central Park moments is the first days of autumn when you sense the weather changing and there is a chill in the air. A brisk autumn walk in Central Park is a treat. If you really want to splurge and see the fall colors, you can rent a pedicab that will drive you through the park, rent a bike nearby, hop on a rowboat on one of the lakes and merely stroll through the many paths and walkways that make this such a user-friendly park.
Scenic byway from Conway to Lincoln, New Hampshire
Fall foliage and New England are famously synonymous. Every Autumn “leap peepers” take road trips all around Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts to witness nature’s colorful show. Perhaps one of the most scenic drives is in New Hampshire’s White Mountains. The vast White Mountains cover one quarter of New Hampshire and are New England’s most rugged mountains. There is no shortage of activities here from camping to hiking to skiing to canoeing. The Kancamagus Scenic Byway (locals call it the Kanc) runs through White Mountain National Forest and is reknown for its stunning displays from the bright red, yellow, and orange maple trees that populate the region.
The main part of this scenic route runs between the towns of Conway and Lincoln, NH. Some not-to-miss scenic lookouts include Kancamagus Pass, the highest point of the highway, Sugar Hill, Pemigewasset and Hancock overlooks. Another scenic highlight is a short and easy hike of less than half a mile to see the picturesque Sabbaday Falls, a popular stop on the highway. You can check online fall foliage calendars as peak color-viewing times can shift each year due to weather and elevation, but typically prime viewing falls somewhere between the last couple weeks of September and the first two weeks of October.

Catskill Mountains, NY in fall
Upstate NY is best to visit during the fall, especially the Catskill Mountains area with ample hikes and lookout spots to view the vivid foliage colors. But if you want to sit back and enjoy those hues of orange, red and brown, then Fall Adventure train rides from Catskill Mountain railroad are perfect. The 90 minute ride in the historic Steam locomotive winds through mountains and rivers for the perfect colorful vistas. You can even enjoy the views from the open-air coach on the train. The train departs from Westbrook Station at Kingston Plaza on fall weekends three times a day. So, make sure to check the timings.
Pro Tip: You can book the train tickets online well in advance to avoid the disappointment. There are no restrooms on the train.
If you love road trips, then the 52-mile-long Catskill Mountain Scenic Byway along NY-28 is your take. So, roll down those windows and indulge in the picturesque landscapes.
There is no shortage of enticing vista points in this region. Hudson river adds to the beauty of the deep colored mountains. Head out to the historic Catskills Point to see for yourself. Pack a lunch to munch at the picnic tables at Dutchman’s Landing Park or dig in at the restaurant while you breathe in the fall crisp air. Another interesting place nearby is the Rip van winkle bridge where you can walk to see the views through the reflections.
Pro Tip: There is parking available at the end of the bridge, to park and enjoy the leisure walk.
If you are interested in hikes, then the cascading Kaaterskill Falls is the popular choice, but is a steep and rocky climb.
Whichever vantage point you choose, Catskill would not disappoint you and you will build some colorful memories that will last forever.

Boston
When you think about fall foliage, big cities aren’t usually one of the first places that come to mind. However, located in the heart of Boston, Massachusetts are two parks: Boston Common and Public Garden. Boston Common is not only a major attraction along the Freedom Trail, but is also the oldest public park in America. Within the parks, you’ll find a combination of various trees, including elm, birch, linden, maple, oak, redwood, and more, creating a stark contrast of color during autumn. Under the trees, you’ll find several memorials and monuments dedicated to various historical events and people, including the Soldiers and Sailors Monument, Boston Massacre Memorial, and more.
While you’re in Boston, make sure to also check out Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market. It’s several stores and street performers keep the area quite lively. You’ll also be able to find several Christmas shops as places begin to prepare for winter holidays.
If you didn’t get your fill of shopping, you can head over to Downtown Crossings, which is considered one of the most bustling intersections in Boston during the weekdays. Or, if you’re done shopping for the day, you can head over to the Boston Harbor for a nice stroll.

Best fall foliage in the Western USA
Ashland Oregon in Autumn
I’d been planning an East Coast leaf peeping trip forever so it was to my utter astonishment when we happened upon a leaf peepers paradise on the west coast. The fall colors were stunning in Lithia Park in Ashland, Oregon as we made our way to Portland. While the adorable town of Ashland was awash in reds, yellows, and oranges, it was in the park where the colors really turned Technicolor.
Lithia is Ashland’s largest and most central park. With 93 forested acres along Ashland Creek, Lithia has been designated one of the top ten Great American Spaces by the American Planning Association. It’s easy to see why: It includes a Japanese garden, two duck ponds, a formal rose garden, a Sycamore tree grove, and lots of secluded spots to hide away in. Lithia Park hosts ice skaters, wedding parties, and plenty of hikers on its extensive trail network, too.
But to see the fall colors, head straight to the lower duck pond and let your eyes feast on the brilliant red of the Japanese maples and cheery yellow and oranges of the Trident and Big Leaf Maples. Or head out on one of the super scenic trails. Consult the city’s extensive trail guide for the park to identify all of the beautiful ornamental and native trees and plants you’ll find here.

A road trip to the Eastern Sierras in California
The Eastern Sierras are a fantastic time to explore this quiet part of the Sierras and fall delivers a colorful show of the entire region. Taking highway 395 from Southern California and all the way to Lake Tahoe up north is a wonderful Eastern Sierra road trip and not so busy in the fall season, but you will be rewarded with typically good weather depending on the timing and when changes in fall foliage start to happen on the eastern side of the Sierras. Popular places to explore include Mt. Whitney and the Alabama Hills, Death Valley National Park, Lone Pine, Manzanar National Monument, Bishop, Mono and Mammoth lakes area and many other spectacular landscapes and parks to visit.
Check out my post on exploring the Eastern Sierra’s here for more images and inspiration to visiting the area during the fall season.
Cascade Mountains in Washington
Washington State teems with evergreen conifers, such as firs and pines, to the west of the Cascade Mountain range, but evergreens only add to the bursts of color that emerge from the scattered birch, aspen, and maple trees found throughout the region. Feeling the Washington vibe for adventure? Drive a little over 2 hours east from Seattle and you’ll be in the heart of the Cascade Mountains. There are many trails on which to explore, but a top-tier mountain experience to get a feel for fall is a hike to Lake Ingalls. The hike itself is 9 miles round trip and if you’re up to the task, you won’t be disappointed. You’ll begin by meandering through some luscious conifer forests, and after a few miles you’ll emerge on mountain tops with stunning vistas. The alpine scrub will change colors just as the fall trees do, turning various shades of orange, red, and purple. This is one of the few places where you can spot unique deciduous conifers called larche.
s, which turn a brilliant yellow and drop their needles in autumn. Perched upon rocky alpine tops, these beacons lead the way to the stunning clear blue-green Lake Ingalls, with Mount Stewart on display in the background. Keep an eye out for mountain goats that roam the lake edges and alpine fields, and enjoy their presence from a distance. Check out the Washington Trails Association website for more detailed information on trail conditions, parking information, and more. Depending on the weather, variants of red, yellow, and orange will emerge in the mountains from September to October – Washington State offers a free Fall Foliage Hotline (800-354-4595) where the leaf color change status is updated daily.

Yosemite National Park
Yosemite National Park which lies on the western side of the Sierra Mountains is a spectacular location to visit in the fall season. Even though you’ll find fall colors a little muted in this landscape which is dominated with green firs and pines, their are colors of changing colors or maples, dogwoods and black oaks on the valley floor. Fall is a great time to visit with Indian summer and less crowds visiting the national park and one of my favorite hikes to see amazing vistas of the park is Glacier Point. With spectacular views from every turn, sunset at Glacier Point is where you want to be to witness end of day at Yosemite. Check out my Yosemite Glacier Point hike here for more images and inspiration to visiting this wonderful national park.
Route 395 in the Eastern Sierra’s
One of the best places for fall leaf-peeping in the western United States is the Eastern Sierra of California. If you drive California State Route 395 between South Lake Tahoe and Bishop in the fall, you’ll see magnificent swathes of color all along the route. You can either just drive the main road, or take a few days and explore the little side roads that lead to the mountain passes or canyons or lakes.
If you just drive the main road, look for great color at Conway Summit, the highest point on SR395. At peak, from the pullout at the side of the road, you can see entire hillsides covered in shades of yellow, ochre, orange, red, and burgundy. It’s a magnificent panorama. Another great spot for fall color on this drive is the June Lake loop, a detour that takes you past four gorgeous lakes fringed with brilliant color in the peak weeks of fall color. Further south, cottowoods provide colo a little later in the season.
If you plan to spend a few days in the region, you have a wealth of options, especially if you have a high-clearance vehicle that can cruise the dirt roads. The entire region is known for its spectacular natural beauty. You will love not just the fall colors, which are a beautiful spectacle, but also the naturescapes along the route.
For updates on fall color in the region, you can contact Mono and Inyo Counties in California or look up their web sites.

USA places to visit in the Midwest
Fall in Boulder, Colorado
The little town of Boulder, Colorado, located at the foothills of Rocky Mountains, is a perfect fall foliage destination. To be honest, it’s a perfect destination in any season, given how charming the town is and the incredible view of the mountains, but fall colors just take its beauty to a whole new level.
According to the city’s official site, the foliage season runs from the 27th of September till the 25th of October, and is at its very best between the 5th and 20th of October, which is when you can get an iconic Boulder picture of the colorful trees with the background of snow-capped Long’s Peak.
In the city, stroll around Mapleton Hill neighborhood and admire the beautiful houses covered by red and yellow leaves. If you want to take a scenic drive, peak-to-peak scenic byway is your best choice. The byway is one of the best places in Colorado to see fall colors. It runs all the way to Estes Park, the gateway to Rocky Mountain National Park where you can visit the Stanley Hotel that inspired Stephen King to write The Shining.

Visit Chicago in the fall season
I think that autumn is the best season to visit Chicago. Chicago can be hot and humid in the summer and cold and windy in the winter but fall usually has the best weather. Early fall is a good time to visit Chicago if you prefer warm summer like temperatures and visitors can enjoy many of the same fun outdoor activities and attractions that are available in the summer (including boat and architecture cruises, outdoor festivals, walking or jogging along the riverwalk and lakefront and drinking or dining at outdoor patios and rooftops). Visitors that enjoy more moderate or cooler temperatures will enjoy visiting Chicago during mid to late autumn. Chicago is a great place to view fall foliage as it has many large parks and green spaces. Millennium Park (home to the famous Bean sculpture) and Lincoln Park are good places to enjoy the colorful leaves in downtown Chicago. For even more leaf viewing, head to the suburbs, especially Chicago Botanic Garden and Morton Arboretum, both of which are large with acres of trees. Another great thing about visiting Chicago in the fall is that the popular tourist attractions are less crowded than they are during summer because school has just started.

Fall time in Michigan
Fall is the BEST time to visit Michigan. If you are from Michigan, or the Midwest, then you know why. Sunny skies, crisp cool air, and the color changing leaves make Fall a magical and enjoyable time of year. My favorite way to celebrate this season is by visiting cider mills! Read on to learn the top 5 reasons to make a cider mill trip in the Midwest this Fall.
- Apple Picking
One of my top reasons to visit a cider mill this fall is for the apple picking. There is just something special about picking your own fruit. I swear it always tastes better. Even reading the names of the apple varieties already gets my mouth watering; Golden Delicious, Fuji, Macintosh, Royal Gala, Honeycrisp
- Cider and Donuts
Although there are countless reasons to visit a cider mill in the Fall, cider and donuts are obviously the MOST important reason. Depending on the weather, if I am visiting a cider mill earlier in the season, and the sun is still warm, I will opt for cold apple cider, or even an apple cider slushy. If the leaves are turning and the air is cooler, I will choose warm apple cider. Either way, the cider is just a sidecar to the donuts. Warm those babies up and dunk them in your cider, and you have a little piece of heaven right there.
- Pumpkins
If you follow me on instagram then you already know how much I love color. And, orange is undoubtedly the color of Fall. The color and feel of autumn orange is represented best by pumpkins
- Hay Rides
Of all the time spent at cider mills, the hay rides leave me with the most lasting impression in my childhood memories. Now that I am an adult, I still get a childlike thrill from the hayrides! I think that it is just the combination of the simplicity of this mode of transportation, with the open air, and the connection to the land and the surrounding nature that makes hay rides so special.
- Animals
Another big reason to visit a cider mill this Fall is to see the animals! Much of the time while visiting apple orchards and cider mills you will see different barn animals
Don’t let the autumn season pass you by without at least one stop at a cider mill in Michigan or the midwest.

The Talimena Scenic Drive in Arkansas
Arkansas is one of the most underrated fall foliage viewing destinations in the United States. While most people visit New England for fall, we love planning a trip to Arkansas for its milder weather, vibrant fall colors, and lesser crowds. One of our favorite fall foliage drives in the area is the Talimena Scenic Drive in the Ouachita mountains. This scenic drive is along the ridge of the Ouachita mountains and is great for seeing fall colors on the mountain slopes. The perfect time to drive the Talimena Scenic Drive is towards the end of September when peak color occurs in the area. We recommend starting in Mena, Arkansas and driving leisurely towards Talihina in Oklahoma, stopping at all the lookouts along the way. Some gems you will see along the way include a historic haunted cemetery, a tall rickety fire mountain, Wilhelmina State Park with its camping and nature trails, an old rail engine, and a couple of waterfalls. This drive is perfect for spending a weekend amidst fall foliage in Arkansas.

Autumn colors in the USA’s Southeast
Shenandoah National Park, Virginia
Shenandoah National Park stretches through Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains, just 75 miles west of Washington DC. The park’s central feature, Skyline Drive, offers easy access to spectacular views and hiking that fill with color in the fall. The drive is 105 miles long, with 75 overlooks and miles of hiking trails, including a long segment of the Appalachian Trail.
If time is short, focus on Shenandoah National Park’s Central District. You’ll find some of the best views at the Hazel Mountain, Stony Man, Thorofare Mountain, and Old Rag Overlooks. These stops give you a nice mix of eastward and westward-facing views. If you like to hike, try the short steep hike to Little Stony Man, or the longer but easier trail to Stony Man summit. Both offer spectacular views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah Valley, and a bit of winding Skyline Drive. The Limberlost Trail, the only wheelchair accessible trail in the park, is a pretty wooded walk where we have seen black bears and deer.
Stop at Skyland Lodge for lunch with a view or an overnight stay. Further south, Big Meadows Visitor Center has excellent exhibits about the history of the park and offers easy hiking in the meadow. Yellow and golden hues dominate the fall foliage in Shenandoah, but you’ll also see bright splashes of red and orange. Peak foliage season in Virginia is usually between early and mid-October.

Great Smoky Mountains National Park
I love fall. I start celebrating fall and Halloween in like, August. It’s always been a dream to go on a big East Coast US fall road trip, and still is, but last year I did a mini road trip through the southeast to see some leaves changing. For ten days at the end of October I explored Asheville, North Carolina, Gatlinburg, Tennessee, Great Smkoy Mountains National Park (GSMNP), and the Blue Ridge Parkway.
I only saw a small portion of the parkway connecting Asheville and GSMNP, but it’s actually 469 miles long, linking Shenandoah and GSMNP. If you have the time, definitely, do that. If not, Asheville to GSMNP is a great option. No matter where you are on the parkway, the colors are going to be great if you’re there at the right time of year. That will of course depend on weather and everything that causes leaves to change, but late September and October are great times for the trip. If you want to stop along the way, tehre are plenty of scenic overlooks to admire the foliage on the mountains as well as 369 miles of hiking trails along the parkway, just 100 less than the parkway itself!
Peaks of Otter, Humpback Rocks, Roanoke Valley, and Cumberland Knob are just four popular hiking trails. The Blue Ridge Parkway is the perfect destination for a fall road trip, especially if you don’t want a super long trip, but want to enjoy the fall colors.

Rock City in Lookout Mountain, GA
One of the best places for experiencing fall colors in the USA lies in a small mountain town straddling the border of Tennessee and Georgia. You’ll find it just six miles from Chattanooga at the top of Lookout Mountain, where Rock City Gardens celebrates the changing of the seasons through a special, month-long event called Rocktoberfest. During the festivities, the Fall Fairy arrives to bring autumn to the mountain, and Ik the Troll King holds special storytelling sessions for the kids. There’s also pumpkin painting, geode digging, live music, dancing, food, and beer. The highlight, of course, is the mountain itself. Visitors follow the 4,100-foot Enchanted Trail through tiny crevices in moss-covered boulders before crossing a 180-foot suspension bridge over Chattanooga Valley and arriving at a gorgeous 90-foot waterfall. Although it’s breathtaking any time of the year, High Falls is best seen during autumn, when the surrounding leaves turn a crisp, golden color that sparkles with the sun. From the observation deck above the falls, it’s possible to see the fall colors of seven states on a cloudless day. Affectionately named Lover’s Leap, this iconic viewpoint gets its name from a Cherokee legend of a distraught maiden who jumped to her death after her lover was captured and shoved off the cliff when the two tribes feuded. There’s even a mountaintop cave full of fantasy creatures–the Fairyland Caverns–which has been known to delight and dazzle both children and adults. Attend this lovely attraction on a weekday, so you can avoid the crowds and get better pictures. Rock City is truly one of the most unique places I’ve ever visited, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a special place to spend an autumn holiday.

Fall time in Asheville, North Carolina
Asheville, North Carolina is one of the best places in the United States to see the fall colors. Asheville is a vibrant liberal city in the scenic Appalachian mountains. It’s well known in North Carolina for being a mecca for breweries, a grand estate, hiking, and all around southern charm. However it’s also very well known for attracting the “leafers” during the fall. Yes, this area is a mecca for orange, yellow, and red leaves come the fall time. It draws in people from around the US to marvel at the spectacle.
It’s best to have a car to explore all the mountains. Prepare for the trip with a good pair of hiking boots and gear to delve into the nature. One of the best spots to get outside around Asheville is The Dupont State Forest. Trails here are well marked and it’s possible to do a short three waterfall hike in under two hours to see the laves. I would recommend bringing a packed lunch just in case you get sucked into all the beauty and don’t want to leave.
Our favorite spot to stay in Asheville was The Windsor. A unique, boutique hotel right in the heart of downtown! Another great option in the small city is Airbnb, they are popping up all over and provide visitors with a home away from home.

The USA seems to don a multi-coloured and exquisite carpet every autumn. The blossoms lend every region a surreal aura. We have read and heard a lot about the autumns in USA from friends and relatives staying there but unfortunately have not been able to visit there during the Autumn season. Hope to make amends soon. The visuals are breathtaking. Love the look of Boston, New Hampshire, and Woodstock, the pictures had me riveted.
Fall is the perfect time to explore the USA and check out fall colors all over the country
I miss the fall colours here in India. Hope to catch it sometime during my travels to the USA. Your pictures are splendid!
Go visit, the fall colors and autumn in the USA is truly outstanding
USA is so colorful in Autumn. I am loving every bit of it and honestly I will be so confused on which part to choose. Still New York at central park, Boston, rock city lookout, and Cascade mountains in Washington will be our favorite places to visit.
It is wonderful how colorful autumn and fall colors are all around the world
It is such a pity that I live in a country that doesn’t see all four seasons! The fall colours look out of this world and I really wish to visit a country that has such a gorgeous autumn! Recently a friend of mine moved to Boston and he shared pictures of the fall season and I was in awe. Just like I see your pictures here, each one better than the previous. I’ll have to make sure that my next trip to the States is during fall season!
Yes a visit around the USA or a specific region during autumn is amazing!
Your photography is so good. Love those colours. I’ve been seeing a lot about how beautiful New England is at this time of year. Central Park in New York is probably where I fancy the most though. We have family there so it sounds like a great time of year to visit and tie in a trip to Catskill Mountains…
Autumn colors are amazing and a trip around New England is a fantastic time to visit the area.
Wow, that photo of Lookout Mountain in Georgia with the waterfall and fall colors is really pretty!
Fall is the one season when I actually miss Pennsylvania, where I grew up. The changing leaves, the pumpkin patches, cider mills…those are all the emblematic things of fall for me. I got to be back last year about this time when my dad had an accident. The circumstances for the unplanned visit weren’t great, but I got to see fall colors like I hadn’t seen in many years.
You definitely should come back to the USA and see some of the wonderful fall colors regionally.
I have always envied US for its fall colours. Right now I am trying to get similar frames in the HImalayas. I have bright yellows of the poplars but the reds are missing!
Autumn colors and fall season is amazing to explore these different areas of the USA
I love the stunning pops of color at the turn of the seasons. I haven’t seen many falls in the past few years, but these photos have made me nostalgic for autumn in the US. Chicago in the fall is gorgeous and crisp and not too cold. The beautiful colors almost make the winter worth it. Almost. I’d love to Yosemite as the leaves start to change. I’ll need to add that to the road trip itinerary! Thanks for sharing the travel inspiration!
There are so many places of color to see Autumn in the USA, even in the cities
Autumn is my favourite season! I’d love to spend the entire Autumn season driving around the USA on a road trip. Yosemite National Park would be at the top of my list! I was wondering if most people in the USA refer to this seasons as “Autumn” or is “Fall” a more popular term?
A road trip to discover all these amazing places for fall season and colors in the USA is a great way to explore different regions and seasonality.
Such beautiful colours, really stunning. I remember taking a train from NYC to Boston in the fall and loved watching the amber, yellows and golds blur past my window. Also the celebration of pumpkins at this time of year. There’s even pumpkin beer!!
These autumn colors destinations are amazing in the USA, I would love also do a road trip through the area.
Gorgeous Noel. We are heading to Norwalk, Connecticut tomorrow for a 10 day house sit. Hopefully the colors begin to turn.
Sounds a little early but maybe you can see of of these other Autumn colors in the USA
What beautiful photos! It’s been raining all day in NY. I can’t wait for the sun to come out so autumn can begin!
It would be fantastic to see all these autumn colors around the USA
Thanks for all the photos and tips
Awesome, hope you get to visit some of these places to visit Autumn in the USA
As a native New Yorker living in San Diego, the meaning of autumn has definitely shifted for me. The photos you’ve included offer a beautiful glimpse into the vast landscape that this country has to offer- what a lovely “trip” through my favorite season.
There are a lot of impressive places to visit autumn in the USA and seeing some wonderful fall foliage
What a wonderful collection! I long to see the fall colors but it seems we’re in upstate NY too early. Thanks too for adding California. It’s wonderful to visit without crowds in the fall.
Yes there is fall colors in California and the west coast, autumn in the USA is a great time to be outdoors
