🍁 FALL ADVENTURES | Scenic Drives & Fall Colors! 🚗

Did you know you can find some pretty spectacular fall colors right here in Arizona? You just have to know where to look!

If you're ready for a little road trip, grab your favorite travel buddy, pack some snacks, and head out to explore. Here are a few beautiful destinations within a few hours of Gold Canyon!

🍂 OAK CREEK CANYON | SEDONA

🚗 Approximately 2.5–3 hours

One of Arizona's prettiest fall drives! Take Highway 89A through Oak Creek Canyon, where the changing leaves create a beautiful contrast against Sedona's famous red rocks.

🍁 Best bet: Late October into early November.

🌲 PAYSON & THE MOGOLLON RIM

🚗 Approximately 2–2.5 hours

Head up Highway 87 toward Payson, then explore Highway 260 and the surrounding Rim Country. Enjoy pine forests, mountain views, cooler temperatures, and pockets of fall color.

🍁 Higher elevations change earlier, so don't wait too long!

🍂 MOUNT LEMMON | TUCSON

🚗 Approximately 2.5–3 hours to Summerhaven

The Catalina Highway takes you from the Sonoran Desert all the way into a mountain forest! Enjoy winding roads, incredible overlooks, golden aspens at higher elevations, and a stop in the little mountain town of Summerhaven.

🍁 Best bet: October into early November, depending on elevation and weather.

🍂 PRESCOTT TO JEROME | MINGUS MOUNTAIN

🚗 Approximately 2.5–3.5 hours

If you enjoy winding mountain roads and charming small towns, this one's for you! Take in the scenery around Prescott and Mingus Mountain, then spend some time exploring historic Jerome.

🍁 A great combination of fall scenery and a fun day trip!

🌳 BOYCE THOMPSON ARBORETUM | SUPERIOR

🚗 Approximately 25–35 minutes

You don't have to drive hours to enjoy the changing seasons! Our nearby Arboretum is a beautiful place to wander the trails, enjoy the gardens, and watch the fall colors develop.

🍁 Fall color usually arrives later here, often from mid-November into early December.

🏔️ FLAGSTAFF & THE SAN FRANCISCO PEAKS

🚗 Approximately 3–3.5 hours

If you've never seen Arizona's golden aspens, add them to your bucket list! The mountain scenery is incredible, although the highest elevations may already be past peak color by late October.

🍁 Check current foliage reports before making the drive.

🌵 One of the best things about living in Arizona is the variety of scenery we can experience in just a few hours. Desert landscapes in the morning and colorful mountain forests by afternoon!
