Autumn's Best Kept Secrets: Where to Catch Nature's Own Fireworks Display This Fall!
There’s something magical about fall in the US—the air gets crisp, the days a little shorter, and the landscapes transform with vibrant hues of red, orange, and gold. If you’re looking to experience peak fall foliage, you’re in luck. The US is packed with spectacular spots where autumn colors take center stage, from mountain ranges and scenic byways to lakesides and charming small towns. Here’s a guide to some of the best places to soak up the breathtaking fall colors across the country.
1. The White Mountains, New Hampshire
The White Mountains are one of New England’s most iconic fall foliage destinations, and it’s easy to see why. With its dense forests and towering peaks, this area bursts into a kaleidoscope of color each fall. Take the Kancamagus Highway, a 34-mile scenic byway that cuts through the heart of the mountains, for unforgettable views. Stops at the Swift River, Sabbaday Falls, and various scenic overlooks are a must. Plan to visit in late September to early October to catch the colors at their best.
2. Stowe, Vermont
Vermont is renowned for its idyllic fall landscapes, and Stowe is the perfect town to experience it. Known for its vibrant maples and classic New England charm, Stowe offers plenty of opportunities to view fall foliage. You can take a leisurely hike on trails like the Stowe Pinnacle or head up the Mt. Mansfield Auto Toll Road for sweeping panoramic views. The nearby Trapp Family Lodge also offers beautiful trails and overlooks, making it a prime spot to catch those autumn shades.
3. The Catskills, New York
Just a few hours north of New York City, the Catskills are a favorite fall destination for anyone craving fresh air and amazing foliage. With over 700,000 acres of forests, this area turns into a rich palette of colors by early October. The Catskill Scenic Trail, which passes through open fields and woodlands, is ideal for leaf-peeping. For an unforgettable view, hike up to Kaaterskill Falls or take a scenic drive along Route 28.
4. Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina & Virginia
The Blue Ridge Parkway, known as “America’s Favorite Drive,” is a stunning choice for fall foliage. Stretching 469 miles between North Carolina and Virginia, the parkway is lined with scenic overlooks and dense forests that burst into color from late September through early November. Popular stops include Grandfather Mountain, Craggy Gardens, and the Linn Cove Viaduct. For a unique perspective, consider hiking one of the many trails along the route.
5. Great Smoky Mountains, Tennessee & North Carolina
The Great Smoky Mountains offer a long season of fall colors, thanks to their diverse elevation range. Starting in early October at higher elevations and peaking by late October in the valleys, this area provides breathtaking views of the vibrant foliage. Cades Cove and Clingmans Dome are two fantastic spots for fall scenery. With a rich mix of tree species, the Smokies display a wide range of colors, from deep reds to golden yellows.
6. Door County, Wisconsin
Nestled between Lake Michigan and Green Bay, Door County is a Midwest gem for fall lovers. This 70-mile peninsula has over 300 miles of shoreline, giving it a unique coastal beauty that complements the changing leaves. Take a scenic drive along Highway 42, explore Peninsula State Park, or stroll through charming towns like Fish Creek and Sister Bay. Peak foliage usually occurs from late September to mid-October, so plan accordingly for the best views.
7. Aspen, Colorado
Known for its namesake trees, Aspen is a truly unique destination to see fall foliage. Unlike other areas where maples and oaks dominate, Aspen’s fall colors come from the golden aspens that blanket the landscape. The Maroon Bells are one of the most photographed spots in Colorado and provide a jaw-dropping backdrop with the mountains, lake, and vivid yellow leaves. Peak season is typically mid to late September, so catch it early if you can.
8. Upper Peninsula, Michigan
The Upper Peninsula of Michigan offers some of the most impressive fall colors in the Midwest, with its vast forests and scenic lakes. Tahquamenon Falls State Park, with its iconic waterfalls surrounded by bright foliage, is a top choice for fall enthusiasts. For those who love a road trip, the 47-mile Brockway Mountain Drive provides stunning views of Lake Superior and miles of trees decked in autumn hues. Peak season typically falls between late September and mid-October.
9. Columbia River Gorge, Oregon
Oregon’s Columbia River Gorge is a spectacular destination for fall foliage, with rugged cliffs, flowing waterfalls, and lush forests that transform with autumn colors. The Historic Columbia River Highway provides easy access to iconic waterfalls like Multnomah Falls, Horsetail Falls, and Bridal Veil Falls, each framed by the seasonal change in foliage. Early to mid-October is the best time to visit, as the combination of waterfalls and colorful forests creates a magical landscape.
10. Ozark National Forest, Arkansas
The Ozark National Forest is a hidden gem for fall foliage lovers. With more than a million acres of protected land, the Ozarks offer a vibrant display of red, orange, and yellow leaves each autumn. Scenic Byway 7 provides fantastic views, and hiking trails like Whitaker Point (also known as Hawksbill Crag) offer breathtaking vantage points. The fall season here peaks from mid to late October, making it ideal for those who love forested mountain views.
11. Leavenworth, Washington
Leavenworth, a Bavarian-themed town in Washington, takes on an extra layer of charm in the fall when its surrounding mountains and forests are decked out in autumn colors. October is the perfect time to visit for both fall foliage and the town’s famous Oktoberfest celebrations. Take a hike in Icicle Ridge for sweeping views or stroll along the Wenatchee River for a quieter, scenic experience.
12. The Berkshires, Massachusetts
Massachusetts’ Berkshire Mountains are a classic New England fall destination, where rolling hills and small towns are ablaze with color each October. The Mohawk Trail, a scenic route that winds through the Berkshires, provides picturesque views and roadside stops. Towns like Lenox and Stockbridge offer cozy inns, art galleries, and local eateries, making the Berkshires perfect for a fall weekend getaway.
From coast to coast, the US offers incredible destinations for fall foliage, each with its own unique charm and breathtaking views. Whether you’re drawn to the rugged landscapes of New England, the grand mountain views of the Smokies, or the aspen groves of the Rockies, fall is the perfect season to explore the country’s natural beauty. Pack your camera, hit the road, and enjoy the vibrant colors of fall!
