Fall in Wisconsin

Wisconsin's true colors shine September through November. The reds, oranges and yellows that fall brings make for ideal leisurely scenic drives, hiking, biking and outdoor activities. In addition, the season brings harvest festivals, hayrides, apple picking, tailgating, wine trails and exceptional culinary experiences. Fall festivals celebrate everything from red cranberries to amber ales.

A popular way to travel in fall is by using color as a guide. Leaves start to change in Northern Wisconsin first, making their way down the state. Earlier fall destinations include scenic Door County, Eagle River, Hayward, and Bayfield. As the rest of the state follows it's truly a sight to see.

The best way to pinpoint the state's peak fall colors and plan a road trip is with the TravelWisconsin.com Fall Color Report. With 100 fall color reporters providing updates in all 72 counties of the state, there is no other report that is as comprehensive or timely.

Visit Wisconsin in the fall and you're sure to find one-of-a-kind attractions, charming towns, rustic roads and gorgeous colors.
