A Few Beautiful Fall Trip Destinations in California

Autumn is one of the best times of year to take a trip. The fall season doesn’t have as many tourists, and the weather is beautiful as the heat fades. Plus, the scenery is unmatched. Check out these great fall trip destinations in California for a weekend away.

 

Julian

Fall is apple-picking time in Julian, California. A charming little town filled with orchards, Julian has roadside stalls selling a variety of rare apple variants along with plenty of homemade goods.

 

Lake Tahoe

Situated between California and Nevada, this lake is a beautiful destination for nature lovers, nestled right in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Head to nearby Hope Valley for stunning views of fall foliage.

Devils Postpile at Mammoth Mountain

Frequent wildfires clear the undergrowth at Devils Postpile National Monument to make way for beautiful, vibrant new flora. Follow the Rainbow Falls trail for an experience you won’t want to miss.

Hearst Castle

While a popular tourist getaway in the summer, Hearst Castle has fewer crowds in the fall. The castle also features autumn evening tours with costumed guides reenacting a classic dinner party.

Ways to Celebrate Fall

 

The fall season is finally upon us, which means cooler weather, colored leaves, and new festivals are on the way. Having fun this fall doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Here are a few ways to celebrate fall; make sure to enjoy the beautiful weather while it lasts!

Oktoberfest

Many communities throughout the nation plan their own Oktoberfest celebrations. Find one in your area and make plans to attend. You’ll love the sheer availability of the German festival’s pretzels, beer, and other fall favorites.

Apple Picking

One of the most enjoyable family-friendly activities of fall is apple picking. Apple season tends to stretch through the months of September and October, offering families the perfect opportunity to get some fresh ingredients. Eat the apples as they are or plan to make some fall treats, like apple pies!

Decorate

Nothing says you’re in the fall spirit like a properly decorated house! Create some decorations of your own or head to the store for some pumpkins and gourds.

Leaves

Raking leaves doesn’t have to be a ton of work. Taking a leap into a large pile is one way to get into the fall spirit.
