With “false fall” officially here, North Carolina is gearing up for one of the most vibrant fall color displays in years.
As cooler temperatures begin to settle across the state, North Carolina’s mountains, valleys, and Piedmont regions are expected to transform into breathtaking displays of orange, red, and yellow hues.
The Blue Ridge Parkway and Appalachian Mountains, known for their stunning views, will once again draw thousands of visitors eager to experience the beauty of the fall season.
Fall colors in North Carolina typically begin appearing in the higher elevations at the end of September, with the peak season running through October.
According to the official fall foliage from SmokyMountains.com, colors are expected to peak throughout most of the mountains and in Mecklenburg county the week of October 14th (about a week sooner than last year’s fall colors).
