Fall is a spectacular time to explore destinations around the world where the natural environment turns into a full-on kaleidoscope of red, orange, and yellow. Here are three ideal destinations for witnessing this marvel of autumn colors. So, grab your camera and a cozy sweater, and let’s begin.

Kyoto, Japan

Kyoto turns into a beautiful canvas of reds and yellows during the fall season, creating a mesmerizing spectacle widely known as “koyo.” It’s the perfect time of the year to wander through iconic spots like Kiyomizu-dera and Tofukuji, where ancient temples meet nature’s masterpiece.

Vermont, USA

Vermont is another noteworthy fall destination you really shouldn’t miss. Indoor pumpkin spice lattes are nice and all, but going for a scenic drive through Vermont’s Green Mountains is so much better. Watch maple trees paint everything in autumn shades and drive along Route 100, where every turn reveals a breathtaking scene.

Bavarian Alps, Germany

Last but not least are Germany’s Bavarian Alps. This area promises a fairytale-like experience filled with vibrant fall foliage. The Neuschwanstein Castle is surrounded by picture-perfect landscapes, and the Bavarian Forest National Park offers a serene escape into a real-life painting. Your Instagram feed will thank you.

Tucked away in the Northeastern United States, the quaint state of Vermont may be small, but this doesn’t mean it’s got plenty to offer. In fact, this is an ideal state to enjoy a romantic vacation. Here are some of the most charming hotels and inns where you can take your soulmate for an intimate getaway.

Green Mountain Inn

The cozy vacation destination is located in the town of Stowe, which proves to be a stereotype of exactly what tourists think of when they arrive in the state of Vermont.

Woodstock Inn & Resort

Surrounded by Vermont’s famous Green Mountains, this is the perfect place to escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. With amenities such as four restaurants, daily afternoon tea, and a 10,000-foot spa, the Woodstock Inn & Resort oozes luxury.

Trapp Family Lodge

As the summer warmth starts to fade and the crisp air of fall begins to settle in, there’s no better place to experience the magic of the season than in Vermont. Known for its charming landscapes, vibrant foliage, and cozy atmosphere, this northeastern gem transforms into a picturesque paradise during the autumn months. We’ll explore why Vermont is the ultimate fall destination and how you can make the most of your visit.

Vibrant Foliage

Vermont’s landscape becomes a canvas of fiery reds, warm oranges, and golden yellows as the leaves change colors. The state’s abundant maple trees create a breathtaking panorama that draws visitors from all over the world.

We’re of the opinion that there’s no finer place to spend some time in the fall than New England, and within New England, no finer place than Vermont. This state is home to some of the country’s most beautiful foliage, picturesque bike paths, and best of all, the original Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream Factory. It may be getting colder, but who says we can’t still enjoy a cone of Chunky Monkey? If you’re looking to get away for a weekend before winter is here and Vermont sounds good to you, here are some things we recommend including in your trip.

Go to the Ben & Jerry’s Factory

We said it before and we’ll say it again. It’s not a trip to Vermont without a visit to this iconic ice cream maker regardless of what time of year you visit. Year-round, you can stop by the factory Scoop Shop for a cone or dish of your favorite flavor, but only in fall can you enjoy it alongside a backdrop of spectacular changing leaves.

The Vermont Country Store

This family-owned shop has been around since 1946 and offers a wide variety of high-quality gifts and souvenirs including food, home goods, and seasonal decor. Be sure to check out the bakery and pick up some locally-made cheese and maple syrup.

Walk Around Burlington

Burlington is a small city east of Lake Champlain, and it’s the perfect place to spend an afternoon strolling around before it gets too cold. Its Church Street Marketplace is filled with shops and restaurants and even hosts an annual Christmas market during the holidays!

Autumn is an incredibly busy time of year. In September, most of us are returning to our school and work routines, and by November we’ve already switched over to holiday-mode. It’s hard to imagine adding any more chaos to the mix, but hear us out: fall is one of the best times to travel in the US. Popular tourist spots are less crowded than they were a few months prior, the weather is more comfortable once the heat has broken, and don’t even get us started on the foliage. Here are some of our favorite spots to take a quick fall weekend getaway.

Charleston, South Carolina

Charleston is beautiful any time of year, but we find it to be a much more pleasant destination when the summer heat has gone. Special fall tours of the city are held throughout October, and we especially love to visit the farmer’s market, which runs until the end of November.

Woodstock, Vermont

We’d be remiss not to mention a foliage-centered spot, and Woodstock is definitely one of the best. The town is also home to several orchards for picking your own apples and the famous Billing’s Farm, where you can play pumpkin bowling.

Santa Fe, New Mexico

Santa Fe has some of the best fall festivals in the country. The weather is ideal throughout the month of October, and the Harvest Festival, International Balloon Fiesta, and Wine and Chile Fiesta are all worth the trip.

If you love biking, Vermont has a real treat for you. Burlington Bike Path is one of the most popular biking trails in America, if not the world. It’s designed for professionals, but even amateurs can work their way around it if they’re so inclined.

Mount Mansfield

If you have a hankering for some beautiful landscapes, don’t miss out on Mount Mansfield. Some of the most beautiful views of America can be seen on this incredible mountain, so make sure you check it out.

Moss Glen Falls

There are some things in life that just have to be seen to be believed, and Moss Glen Falls is one of them. If you find yourself in Vermont and need a place to relax and feel the rush of being alive, this is definitely the place to go.

This summer has been a weird one but it’s nearly over. We’re getting ready for fall that will also be largely focused on the pandemic and everything it brought us, but that doesn’t mean we can’t take a short trip while following all the required safety measures. If you live near Vermont and can spare several days to visit the area, here are the foods you must try.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CEsTHjUp1jg/

Chocolate

While maple syrup is a staple food in Vermont, their chocolates and bonbons are absolutely worth a try. You can find a great selection of flavors and kinds, from hand-made bonbons, bars of dark chocolate, chocolate-covered fruit, etc.

Cheese

Cheese making is a proper art form in Vermont. It evolved from being simply a culinary trade and now you can find cheeses that have won many awards all over the place. You can taste over 150 cheese varieties made by more than 45 cheesemakers.

Apple Cider

There’s no better feeling in the fall than drinking delicious apple cider with a view of nature in the fall. Vermont is known for beautiful fall scenery so enjoy it as you sip some local cider.

In only about a month from now, the deciduous forests of New England in the United States will begin to undergo a change that will transform them into a show full of spectacular, blazing colors that is one of the most beautiful natural phenomena on earth.

New England is full of beautiful road routes that will showcase the best of the autumn scenery that the area has to offer. Here are three drives that you can go on to see the best of New England’s fall colors!

Maine: Coastal Route 1 (mid-October)

Maine’s Coastal Route 1, which winds along the Atlantic Ocean through old-growth deciduous forests, is spectacular at any time of year. In mid-October, however, during peak fall colors, its trees turn the coastline into a beautiful mix of ocean and the bright warm colors of the fall leaves.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BL9cYwvj10D/

Vermont: Green Mountain Byway (late September or early October)

If you’re looking for a place to see the fall colors a bit earlier, the late September/early October peak of Vermont’s Green Mountain Byway is a great option. This high-altitude route winds through the state’s interior mountainous terrain and mixes in fall colors with quaint small towns.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BNCVgSlgrNZ/

New Hampshire: Lake Winnipesaukee Loop (mid-October)

A popular summer swimming and boating destination, New Hampshire’s Lake Winnipesaukee is also a hot destination in autumn due to its changing leaves. At its mid-October peak, this loop route around the largest lake in the state is a delight for the senses.

Did you know that there are cities in the world that are willing to pay you to move there? If you are planning on taking a radical step and moving somewhere abroad, consider moving here.  

Vermont, USA  

It does sound weird that a place filled with natural lakes, forests, rare animals, and other unspeakable natural beauties now pays people to move there, but the state has become the second least populated US state. If you decide to move to Vermont, you will be rewarded around $5,000 in two years.   

Sicily, Italy  

Authorities in the small Sicilian town of Sambuca, which was named the most beautiful city in 2016, decided to save their city by selling real estate for just 1 euro. They hope that giving properties away for virtually nothing will attract an influx of new people to replace the ones who decided to move to the larger towns nearby.   

Santiago, Chile  

If you want to live between the Andes and the Pacific and have an excellent new business idea, Santiago is waiting for you! They offer up to $40,000 to help you start a business and get a tourist visa. They are a couple of different programs you can enroll in, so the choice is yours – don’t be too late.

Everyone has to witness the magnificence of New England in the fall at least once in their lives. The good news is that it’s surprisingly affordable. Here’s a taste of affordable New England vacation destinations.

Dover, Vermont

This Mount Snow Valley location is known for its summer and winter beauty, but it’s gorgeous in the fall. You can take a chairlift to check out the view from Mount Snow, or simply go on a drive to witness the beautiful red, gold, yellow, and orange foliage all around you.

The Berkshires, Massachusetts

The rural beauty of this area is spectacular in the Fall. Visit natural preserves at October Mountain State Forest or Beartown State Forest, and take in all those glorious colors.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BCsni3MlkeP/?tagged=theberkshiresmassachusetts

Bar Harbor, Maine

Make the charming town of Bar Harbor your base as you hike through the nearby Acadia National Park. The foliage is at its most colorful in mid-October.

Lincoln, New Hampshire

Apart from spectacular mountain views, the Lincoln area offers everything from hiking to poolside relaxation. Hike the Appalachian Trail or the Flume Gorge, or take a gondola up the side of a mountain for a 360-degree view.

This summer has been a weird one but it’s nearly over.

Chocolate

While maple syrup is a staple food in Vermont, their chocolates and bonbons are absolutely worth a try. You can find a great selection of flavors and kinds, from hand-made bonbons, bars of dark chocolate, chocolate-covered fruit, etc.

Cheese

Cheese making is a proper art form in Vermont. It evolved from being simply a culinary trade and now you can find cheeses that have won many awards all over the place. You can taste over 150 cheese varieties made by more than 45 cheesemakers.

In only about a month from now, the deciduous forests of New England in the United States will begin to undergo a change that will transform them into a show full of spectacular, blazing colors that is one of the most beautiful natural phenomena on earth.

New England is full of beautiful road routes that will showcase the best of the autumn scenery that the area has to offer. Here are three drives that you can go on to see the best of New England’s fall colors!

Maine: Coastal Route 1 (mid-October)

Maine’s Coastal Route 1, which winds along the Atlantic Ocean through old-growth deciduous forests, is spectacular at any time of year. In mid-October, however, during peak fall colors, its trees turn the coastline into a beautiful mix of ocean and the bright warm colors of the fall leaves.

Vermont: Green Mountain Byway (late September or early October)

If you’re looking for a place to see the fall colors a bit earlier, the late September/early October peak of Vermont’s Green Mountain Byway is a great option. This high-altitude route winds through the state’s interior mountainous terrain and mixes in fall colors with quaint small towns.

New Hampshire: Lake Winnipesaukee Loop (mid-October)

A popular summer swimming and boating destination, New Hampshire’s Lake Winnipesaukee is also a hot destination in autumn due to its changing leaves. At its mid-October peak, this loop route around the largest lake in the state is a delight for the senses.

Did you know that there are cities in the world that are willing to pay you to move there? If you are planning on taking a radical step and moving somewhere abroad, consider moving here.  

Vermont, USA  

It does sound weird that a place filled with natural lakes, forests, rare animals, and other unspeakable natural beauties now pays people to move there, but the state has become the second least populated US state. If you decide to move to Vermont, you will be rewarded around $5,000 in two years.   

Sicily, Italy  

Authorities in the small Sicilian town of Sambuca, which was named the most beautiful city in 2016, decided to save their city by selling real estate for just 1 euro. They hope that giving properties away for virtually nothing will attract an influx of new people to replace the ones who decided to move to the larger towns nearby.   

Santiago, Chile  

If you want to live between the Andes and the Pacific and have an excellent new business idea, Santiago is waiting for you! They offer up to $40,000 to help you start a business and get a tourist visa. They are a couple of different programs you can enroll in, so the choice is yours – don’t be too late.

Everyone has to witness the magnificence of New England in the fall at least once in their lives. The good news is that it’s surprisingly affordable. Here’s a taste of affordable New England vacation destinations.

Dover, Vermont

This Mount Snow Valley location is known for its summer and winter beauty, but it’s gorgeous in the fall. You can take a chairlift to check out the view from Mount Snow, or simply go on a drive to witness the beautiful red, gold, yellow, and orange foliage all around you.

The Berkshires, Massachusetts

The rural beauty of this area is spectacular in the Fall. Visit natural preserves at October Mountain State Forest or Beartown State Forest, and take in all those glorious colors.

Bar Harbor, Maine

Make the charming town of Bar Harbor your base as you hike through the nearby Acadia National Park. The foliage is at its most colorful in mid-October.

Lincoln, New Hampshire

Apart from spectacular mountain views, the Lincoln area offers everything from hiking to poolside relaxation. Hike the Appalachian Trail or the Flume Gorge, or take a gondola up the side of a mountain for a 360-degree view.
