🍂 Say no more — this fall, I’m definitely going to Vermont! 🍁

If New England in autumn were a painting, Vermont would be at the very heart of the canvas. With 78% forest coverage, the entire state seems set ablaze by maple trees. By late September, even the air carries the sweet scent of fallen leaves. 🚗💨 ⏰ Best Time to Visit & Suggested Itinerary 🍂 Peak foliage: Mid-September to early October (varies by 1–2 weeks each year) 🚗 Drive time: ~3 hours from Boston, ~5 hours from NYC 📅 Recommended stay: 2–3 days to enjoy driving + small towns + outdoor activities 🌟 Must-Do Experiences 🚗 Scenic Drives — Beyond the famous VT-100 VT-108 (Smugglers Notch Road): Winding, narrow, and surrounded by a tunnel of maple trees — incredibly atmospheric! Route 7: A classic north-south route with covered bridges, pastoral farms, and perfect blends of foliage and countryside. 🏡 Quaint Towns & Churches — Perfect for photos Stowe: That white-spire church is iconic ☑️, but save time for cozy cafés and craft shops too. Woodstock: Often called “America’s prettiest small town.” Covered bridges, green lawns, and fiery maples make every shot postcard-ready. 🚡 Gondola Rides & Mountain Views Stowe SkyRide: Take the gondola up for a bird’s-eye view of the colorful mountains — absolutely breathtaking! Killington Peak: One of Vermont’s highest peaks. On clear days, you can see all the way to New Hampshire’s White Mountains. 🌲 Hiking Trails If driving isn’t enough, try these short hikes: Nichols Ledge: 15-minute climb to a panoramic valley view. Owls Head Mt.: Family-friendly with a rewarding summit. Camel’s Hump Trail: A Vermont classic — moderate fall hike with epic views. 🍁 Maple Culture Vermont is America’s #1 maple syrup producer! 🍯 Though it’s not sugaring season, many Sugarhouses offer tastings — try maple coffee, maple ice cream, and other local treats. 📷 Photo Spots (Local Secrets) Second-floor balcony of the café across from Stowe’s main street The meadow near Woodstock’s covered bridge Nichols Ledge at golden hour 🧡 (Pro tip: Avoid harsh midday sun!) � Sample 2-Day Route: D1: NYC → Hudson Valley Parks → Fort Ticonderoga D2: Lincoln Home → Stratton Mountain Gondola → Return to NY ⚠️ Tips: Check the Fall Foliage Report — colors change fast! Book accommodations early (Stowe & Woodstock sell out!) Pack layers — mountain weather changes quickly Skip the closed “instagram-farm” — it’s no longer open to the public #Vermont #VermontFall #VermontFoliage #FallInVermont #NewEnglandFall #AutumnTravel
