USA’s most breathtaking autumn destinations
Autumn in the United States is a beautiful season, with vibrant foliage, cool temperatures, and one of the best seasons to be out and about. In the US, the season is also referred to as the fall season. This is the time (between summer and winter) when the leaves on deciduous trees change colour, and it’s just a riot of colours everywhere.
Here are some of the best autumn destinations in the USA.
New England
This region is famous for its stunning fall foliage. States like Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Maine offer some of the most picturesque autumn landscapes in the country. Drive the scenic routes like the Kancamagus Highway in New Hampshire for a picture-perfect holiday.
Aspen, Colorado
Aspen is famous for its golden aspen trees. The Maroon Bells, one of Colorado's most iconic landscapes, is especially beautiful during this time.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee/North Carolina

Napa Valley, California
