When the temperature starts to drop, the leaves begin to change, and the scent of pumpkin spice begins to take over, we all know that autumn has begun.

There’s no better place to be than New England in the fall. From Maine to Connecticut, the entire region comes alive in celebration of the fall season.

You’ll travel through the beautiful region of the Berkshires, where outdoor adventure awaits, like hiking, biking, and even camping.
