The tricky thing about fall foliage is exactly how best to experience it.
From the window of a car touring through Vermont? From the balcony of a country inn, also in Vermont? Neither of those. The best answer is actually this: Hipcamp’s fall foliage camping map.
This map is smarter than you probably think. You can sort it not just by place but by time as well — so if you’re looking for a foliage hotspot for, say, next weekend, it’ll adjust its picks based by projected peak foliage. Ready to go? We are — so below, our top picks for the next few weekends.
