Tips / Travel

Fall is one of the most beautiful times of the year. Luckily for those of us in the Northeast we have the opportunity to experience all four seasons. Autumn’s crisp air and bright colors inspire travelers to embrace their time outdoors before winter quickly approaches. The fall weather makes it an ideal time to hike or road trip in order to admire the foliage. There is no shortage of fall scenery across the United States, from traveling to New England and exploring historic towns covered in red, yellow and orange leaves or a trip to the West Virginia mountains with a stay in a cozy cabin. Admire the beauty fall offers and surround yourself in nature.

 

The season is also a perfect time to include wine-country regions in your travels, from Napa Valley to the Finger Lakes. If you plan to stay local, there are plenty of farmers markets, apple and pumpkin orchards and fall festivals where you can pick up apple cider donuts or pumpkin pie. Celebrate fall with a family-friendly hayride, corn maze or perhaps a haunted house to get in the Halloween spirit.

 

With the arrival of fall also comes everything pumpkin-flavored, from cakes, coffee, kale and peanut butter; however the most anticipated pumpkin-flavored treat is beer. Craft breweries were among the first to create the seasonal fall-flavored beers, from Pumpkin Ale from Horseheads Brewing to Imperial Pumpkin Ale from Weyerbacher Brewing company, find your fall treat.
