Autumn travel destinations highlight New England and Montana foliage

Travelers looking for autumn scenery have several notable destinations to consider this season. In the United States, New England remains a premier location for foliage, with highlights including the Kancamagus Highway in New Hampshire and the Green Mountains in Vermont. Other regional attractions include coastal Maine, Boston, and Salem, Massachusetts.

Montana is also emerging as a destination for autumn enthusiasts, utilizing a new fall foliage map provided by the Department of Natural Resources. The map helps visitors navigate the state's 26 million forested acres, including areas around Bozeman, Missoula, and Glacier National Park. Because of high elevations and a northern climate, peak foliage in Montana typically occurs in a short window from late September to mid-October.
