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 Ohio.
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 Ohio to see fall foliage are Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad, Hocking Hills Scenic Byway and Hueston Woods State Park.
Here's what the site had to say about the scenic fall nature views at Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad:
"If you want to ride in style through gorgeous broadleaf forests displaying all their fall colors, let the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad show you the sights. With tracks running north and south through the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, this railway puts you right in the middle of the action all season long. While riding their rails, you can go from Independence to Akron and back or stop anywhere in between. You're even given the option to hike, run, kayak, or bike through the forest to your heart's content, and then catch a ride back to the starting point once you're all tuckered out."
