New England Knowhow

Mother Nature is fickle, so seeing New England fall foliage at its peak is a crap shoot, at best. Here are a few tips to increase your chance of seeing brilliant coloration on your visit to New England:

For Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont, your best bet is anywhere from the last week of September through the first week or two of October.

The 3-day weekend around the Columbus Day holiday is often associated with peak foliage in Massachusetts, New York, Connecticut, and Rhode Island, but there are no guarantees.

Foliage updates are available online and by phone for the New England states and New York - calling ahead once the season is in progress is never a bad idea.

Be mobile. Driving to or renting a car once you have arrived in New England can open up your opportunities for going to where the best leaves are.
