"People come from all over the world, in particular artists, to view the foliage in the Boston Mountains between Ft. Smith and Fayetteville, Arkansas." - Sharon

"Our family loves the White Mountains of New Hampshire.  The top of Cannon Mountain (accessible by tramway), in Franconia Notch State Park is a lovely spot.  

Rattlesnake Mountain, (trailhead off Rte. 113 in Holderness, NH) is a short hike with incredible lake and mountain views.  Breathtaking in the fall. 

Owl's Head, in the Groton State Forest near Groton, VT, is reached by driving most of the way up the mountain and then a short hike to the summit.  Views of pond and foliage; just beautiful.  

The foliage is almost at peak now here in New Hampshire.  Glorious fall weather!  Hope some of your readers can come to New England and enjoy!" - Sara Tatham

Please feel free to send us your favorite fall foliage spots and we will add them to the list. Our family currently lives in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia and it's beautiful here too! - Michelle, editor of Holiday Family Fun
