"Boston in the fallmeans crisp weather, colorful foliage in the parks, tasty harvest-inspired menus, and plenty to do. It’s the kind of place where I can sip cider on a cobblestone street, walk beneath canopies of amber leaves, and catch the Red Sox season’s last roar—sometimes all in one day."
I’ve got a warm cider doughnut in one hand, a scarf wrapped tight, and crunchy leaves underfoot—all while strolling through Beacon Hill or browsing open-air markets in Boston’s South End.
Highlights:
- Stroll through the golden leaves in Boston Common and Public Garden.
- Pick apples and pumpkins at nearby orchards like Lookout Farm.
- Take a scenic drive along the Mohawk Trail.
- Explore haunted history on a Beacon Hill ghost tour.
- Sip hot cider while browsing fall markets and fairs.
