6.Sugar Hill, New Hampshire
Sugar Hill is named after its numerous sugar maples and is perhaps a rather obvious choice for seeing spectacular fall foliage. It’s a tiny town with less than 500 residents. Additionally, it overlooks the well-known White Mountain National Forest with scenery so stunning it is almost unbelievable.
Indeed, you use this humble hamlet as your base and tour both the autumn hues and quaint covered bridges from one place. Be sure to take the popular fall foliage drive along the Kancamagus Highway which crosses through the very heart of the majestic White Mountains. You can also take the gondola all the way up lovely Loon Mountain and then go hiking through popular Franconia Notch State Park, which some say is most beautiful in the fall.
7.Egg Harbor, Wisconsin
Egg-ceptional Egg Harbor is located in an area that includes farmland, nature preserves, and lush orchards. More importantly, it is what some eggs-perts call one of the Midwest’s “best fall foliage destinations.” Veteran visitors suggest taking the drive from Egg Harbor to nearby Ephraim along route WI-42.
Egg Harbor itself includes a foliage-lined main street. You can egg-splore the various bakeries, boutiques, galleries, and restaurants as you go leaf-peeping. Peak colors can be seen between early and mid-October. Visit during the second week of October and participate in one of the largest annual festivals here, the Egg Harbor Pumpkin Patch Festival. It includes carnival rides, live music, fall food vendors, arts and crafts vendors, and more.
