Fall Foliage in Bucks County

The leaves are starting to turn their fall colors. While we are not anywhere near a full fledged display, there is some color to be seen.

While it's nice to be able to go to the mountains for a weekend, a lot of us just don't have the time. You can experience the fall colors with a day trip in Bucks County.

Some suggestions are:

• Take River Road (route 32) north from New Hope up to about Upper Black Eddy. There are places where you can pull over near the canal.
• Visit one of the Bucks County Parks (State or County). The parks with lakes can be especially beautiful with the fall foliage.
• Visit the town of New Hope or Peddler's Village in Lahaska when the foliage is in full color.
• Get a good map or trust your GPS and take a leisurely ride through the back roads, perhaps checking out some of the covered bridges in the area.
• Take a train ride from New Hope.
