Alabama’s Colour Trail
Alabama is beautiful throughout the year but especially in the fall. As the greens of summer surrender to glittering yellow poplars, scarlet dogwoods, orange maples and golden hickories, Alabama unfolds its patchwork quilt of colour. This blend of brilliant autumn foliage, coupled with cooler temperatures and an occasional gentle breeze, makes for an unforgettable experience. Fall colours will begin showing in the mountains of North Alabama in early October and then sweep across the region. Colours will be at their peak from late October to early November. At Oak Mountain State Park in Pelham, take in the view from Peavine Overlook and Peavine Falls. Head north to Oneonta/Blount County and enjoy the colour from Horton Mill, Old Easley or Swann covered bridges and Palisades Park.
