]]> Fall will be here before we know it, and one of the things we’re most looking forward to is planning a trip to see the foliage. While hiking and road trips are both great ways to take in the views, this year, we thought it might be fun to mix things up a bit with a train ride. Fortunately, there are plenty of railways throughout the US that make for excellent front row seats to some of the best foliage in the country. Here are a few we’re especially excited about.

Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad, Ohio

Just outside of Cleveland in Ohio’s Cuyahoga Valley National Park, this historic railroad offers passengers a front row seat to an impressive display of hickories and oaks. Come fall, the trees burst into a tapestry of rich autumnal colors, typically peaking toward the end of October. The line even has special dome cars with floor-to-ceiling windows for optimal foliage gazing.

Mount Washington Cog Railway

Renowned as the world’s first mountain-climbing cog railway, this line provides passengers with a unique perspective as it ascends to the summit of Mount Washington in New Hampshire. Views from the railway are spectacular year-round, but are even more beautiful when the leaves start to change.

Georgetown Loop Railroad

West of the Mississippi, the historic Georgetown Loop Railroad winds between former mining towns Georgetown and Silver Plume at heights of up to 600 feet. While perhaps not for the faint of heart, the journey does offer some truly incredible foliage views for those who don’t mind venturing to such altitudes. The line even hosts fall-themed events throughout the season such as a Fall Colors Train and a Pumpkinfest ride!

]]> While many of us probably associate the northeastern part of the state of Ohio with cities like Cleveland and Akron, there is a hidden variety of charming small towns that offer up a great place to kick back and relax. On your next trip to northeast Ohio, be sure to make time to visit these three towns!

Oberlin

This peaceful university town of under 10,000 residents is located southwest of Cleveland and features a walkable, charming downtown area. The campus of Oberlin College, the Allen Memorial Art Museum, and the Oberlin Heritage Center are all sports worth checking out!

Put-in-Bay

Lake Erie is the natural gem of the northeast Ohio region, and Put-in-Bay is arguably its best town. Located on an island in the lake and accessible via ferry service from Sandusky, you’ll find a boardwalk and Perry’s Victory and International Peace Memorial here, commemorating an American win in the War of 1812 and commemorating the following peace between the US, Canada, and the UK.

Rocky River

Are you in Cleveland and looking to get away from the hustle and bustle? Rocky River, a quaint suburb located southwest of the city, is a great town to check out. Beautiful lakeside houses and beaches are part of the charm of this little community.

]]> College football season starts in under a month in the United States! This sport is extremely popular throughout the US and provides spectators with a great atmosphere and experience.

College athletics are all about passion, and if you want to check out a stadium for yourself, here are four passionate and loud stadiums that I recommend visiting.

Tiger Stadium (Baton Rouge, Louisiana)

The home stadium of the LSU Tigers is known for having some of the most electric crowds on the planet. Most games are hosted at night. Believe it or not, a seismograph at a university laboratory near the stadium once recorded a false earthquake due to the crowd noise during a game!

Autzen Stadium (Eugene, Oregon)

Located in the tranquil Pacific Northwest, the home stadium of the Oregon Ducks is anything but calm. Holding only 54,000 spectators, this stadium’s unique sunken bowl design traps in crowd noise that is simply overpowering for opposing teams.

Neyland Stadium (Knoxville, Tennessee)

Neyland Stadium hosts the University of Tennessee Volunteers and offers one of the most unique gameday experiences in college football. Many of the stadium’s 102,455 fans arrive at the stadium by boat on the Tennessee River and host pre-game parties on their vessels!

Ohio Stadium (Columbus, Ohio)

The Ohio State Buckeyes’ stadium is one of the biggest in the country, hosting 104,944 spectators. Buckeye fans are some of the most rabid in the country, and they go absolutely wild every time their team scores a touchdown.
