Fall is right around the corner, the time of year when the weather starts too cool down, days become shorter and leaves begin to transform into vibrant orange, yellow and red hues. Fortunately for people who make a hobby out of viewing the autumnal changes, those vivid blooms can be found all around the country — including in Georgia.
SmokyMountains.com compiled a list of the best places in each state to view the colorful transformation, the must-visit destinations every nature lover should check out to catch watch the fall foliage fully unfold before the winter. According to the site, the three best places in Georgia to see fall foliage are Lookout Mountain, Tallulah Gorge State Park and Red Top Mountain State Park.
Here's what the site had to say about the scenic fall nature views at Lookout Mountain:
"Well known as home to Rock City, Lookout Mountain goes big on the fall colors across the gardens and beyond. In fact, if you go up to Lover's Leap, it's said that you can see the foliage across seven states, treating you to the full rainbow of hues. Beyond that, in the gardens proper, you can view more than 400 native plants as they change through the autumn months. The ancient rock formations serve as the perfect backdrop with their rugged structures and dark colors beautifully contrasting the bright autumn hues. Prefer to let the rails do all the fancy footwork? Take a ride on the Lookout Mountain Incline Railway to experience all the sights."
