Autumn has officially arrived! While the warm summer days in the sun are now behind us, the fall season offers a wide array of enjoyable outdoor activities. Whether you’re an adventure seeker, a foodie, a photography enthusiast, or just looking to entertain the kids, there’s a delightful fall activity waiting for you!
Check out these outdoor activities to add to your fall bucket list this season!
Scenic Fall Foliage Drive
Gather the whole family and spend a few hours driving along scenic country roads or through the mountains to admire the beautiful fall foliage. This is a great opportunity to capture stunning photos and revel in the vibrant colors of the changing leaves, a breathtaking phenomenon unique to autumn.
Apple Picking Adventure
Plan a day trip to pick your own apples! Across the United States, you’ll find numerous “pick-your-own” farms, many of which offer additional fun activities and delicious treats. You’ll be provided with a basket to collect your apples, and you can often wander through the orchard at your own pace, climbing ladders to select the finest fruit to bring home.
With your freshly picked apples, you can craft a variety of recipes, from pies and strudels to sauces and spreads. Spend quality time with friends or family experimenting in the kitchen with festive apple-themed recipes.
Exciting Corn Maze
Corn mazes are fun for all ages! While traditional corn mazes are perfect for kids and families, there are also more challenging mazes designed for teens and adults. Round up your friends for a trip to a local corn maze, and celebrate your achievement with a visit to a nearby brewery for some autumn-inspired drinks afterward!
Visit a Pumpkin Patch
There’s nothing quite like selecting the perfect pumpkin for Halloween. Take a delightful day trip with your loved ones to a local pumpkin patch. While you’re there, you might even enjoy a hayride or have the chance to feed some friendly farm animals!
If you want to elevate your fall festivities, consider visiting Maine. Known for its stunning fall foliage, Maine has an abundance of activities and festivals to enjoy during this enchanting season.
