Fall Foliage


During autumn when the leaves change color right before they fall, the mountains and plains in New England become breathtakingly beautiful. Many people plan foliage trips at this time to see the changing colors of the leaves and to take in the beautiful scenery.

The best places to go for fall foliage trips are New Hampshire, Maine and Vermont where peak foliage season begins around mid-to-late September. You can either take a day-trip or make it your weekend getaway. Peak foliage season begins a little later in Massachusetts, typically early-to-mid October. To learn more, visit these websites:
