Fall has arrived. Hightail it out of the city on a fabulous fall color drive. Pedal past vineyards. Pack a picnic and head to a foliage-flush spot. Or escape to an especially fall-friendly town.
Move quickly, before the last leaf touches down.
From the folded foothills of the Sierra Nevada to the scenic two-lane Blue Ridge Parkway to shores of the Great Lakes, this marvelous season resides in unexpected, unassuming places.
When the writers and photographers from Southern Living, Sunset, Coastal Living and 10Best encounter the fondest embraces of fall, we like to share our discoveries. Foliage blazing with brilliant color, these spots make America proud, and to experience them firsthand leaves us with a profound sense of privilege.
That said, what are you waiting for?
Pack your bags, grab your map, and fill your tank ... it's time to follow fall's colorful footsteps across this great land.
