The Top Towns with the Most Fabulous Fall Foliage

Autumn foliage is everywhere in the months of September through November and it is beautiful wherever you live. But where are the places that are ranked as having the most fabulous fall foliage? Here is a list of the top places for fall foliage. Because the leaves change depending upon how much, or how little rain a place has had and how cool or warm the temperatures are, the time of year mentioned for the best foliage is just an estimate. Check each place before visiting to see how the foliage is and when they expect it to peak. Whether you choose to drive to one of these locations or not, enjoy your own fall colors while they last.
