There’s nothing quite like fall in New England. We begin to crave the feeling of crisp fall air, the tastes of freshly harvested apples, and, of course, the beautiful fall foliage. The best way to experience this is by taking a New England road trip.
Fall is the perfect time of year to explore all the historic sites of this great city. Walk the Freedom Trail, stroll through Boston Commons, and check out the big ships in the harbor.
Here, it’s easy to fill your fall road trip itinerary with outdoor activities like hiking, biking, and even horseback riding.
The drive from the Berkshires to Burlington takes only about three and a half hours without stopping. But instead of rushing along, we recommend stopping off at Woodstock (VT, not NY) and Montpelier.
Anyone will tell you the best views are from the top of the mountains in New Hampshire. In the White Mountains, there are so many ways to get there.
You can ride a gondola at Loon Mountain, hop on a cable car at Cannon Mountain, zip through the trees at Gunstock Mountain, or simply hike to the top of one like Mount Lafayette.
Many come to Acadia to hike the picturesque terrain. Another great idea is to drive it, too. The Acadia Byway (Route 3) will take you onto Mt. Desert Island around the park and to Bar Harbor.
