Fall Foliage Season in Stowe, Vermont

To see Stowe and the surrounding countryside at its most spectacular, visit Stowe in autumn. Frosty mornings give way to cool, crisp days--perfect for enjoying the outdoors. The colorful hillsides--ablaze with red, orange, and gold--are truly breathtaking. It's a treat for the senses and the soul!

But please don't ask us to tell you exactly when the leaves will be at their peak. The timing depends on temperature, sunlight, and rainfall amounts. This makes the timing of the peak a little different from year to year and impossible to predict exactly, although it's the subject of endless speculation in these parts. As a general rule, you can be assured of viewing brilliant colors from the last week of September through the first two weeks of October (with some isolated color both before and after). Make your reservations early! People flock to our beautiful village from all over the world to see nature's most impressive show!
