Fall is just around the corner, and with it comes the season for delicious cider doughnuts, beautiful scenery (even if it’s closed off due to an increased amount of tourists and cars), and family-friendly activities amid a backdrop of leaves turning to various shades of yellow, orange, and red.

Foliage experts recently shared their predictions with Boston.com, some sharing that we’re in for a more subdued foliage with pastel leaves due to recent wet weather.

“I think it’s going to be a very pretty year. I just don’t think it’s going to be bold,” said Jim Salge, a former meteorologist and foliage expert at Yankee magazine.

Leaf peeping season also offers fun activities from apple picking at one of many apple orchards across the state, dressing up for Halloween, and hayrides. A farm hayride takes its passengers through scenic routes of apple orchards with ripe fruit and beautiful fall foliage without taking a step (which can be helpful if your toddler decides they’re done walking for the day). Additionally, there are also haunted hayrides in the area for those looking for an adrenaline rush this fall.
