12.Stockbridge, Massachusetts

You will find Stockbridge deep in the heart of a famous fall foliage destination, the beautiful Berkshires. This charming town features several antique shops and museums such as the Norman Rockwell Museum. The famous 20th-century painter, illustrator, and author, Norman Rockwell, was born here.

The surrounding countryside is not only scenic but great for biking and hiking. If you’re feeling less athletic, take a drive on some of the local roads framed with scarlet and gold. Lake Mahkeenac, a.k.a Stockbridge Bowl, is definitely a must-see for magnificent multi-colored displays.

13.Leavenworth, Washington

Leavenworth is a picturesque Bavarian town nestled on the eastern slopes of the majestic Cascade Mountain Range. It’s not only a great place to get a bit Bavarian in the rugged Pacific Northwest, but it is also one of the best small towns to take in some autumnal colors. There are several noteworthy fall foliage routes here.

They include a stretch of Highway 2 just north of town, which leads you across the mountains amongst gorgeous gold and yellow trees strikingly reflected in lovely Lake Wenatchee. Drive south on nearby Highway 97 and take in the sight of Blewett Pass’ forests blanketed in brilliant red aspens, cottonwoods, and huckleberry bushes. The best time to catch the colors is generally in late September through the middle of October.
