Fall Colours


This week may be the last opportunity to see some beautiful fall leaves before the rain washes them away. But where to go? And is it already too late?

Leaf-Watching Made Easy: Ontario Tourism publishes its Fall Colour Report twice a week, which "provides information on the colour change and the best viewing locations across Ontario." For example, here is the October 14th entry for the Greater Toronto Area:

"There are some nice pockets of colour now in the Toronto region with a 60% colour change to this point. A good location for a fall colour walk over the next couple of weeks includes High Park just off the Gardiner Expressway. Conservation areas such as Bruce’s Mill off Stouffville Road and the Kortright Centre for Conservation near Kleinburg are great spots for fall colour hikes. The colours along the Don Valley Parkway region are always excellent during the fall and we are also seeing some pockets of nice colour now in the York Region, just north of Toronto."

So grab a coat and camera and head outside before all the leaves are gone.

Happy fall!
