Travel Wisconsin’s Fall Color Report
Autumn officially arrives on Tuesday, and in celebration, Travel Wisconsin has launched its Fall Color Report. This interactive, map-based resource helps travelers plan getaways around the vibrant fall foliage.
What is the Fall Color Report?
-
Monitoring Fall Colors: The report tracks the changing colors of leaves from green to peak hues, with over 100 volunteers providing updates from all 72 counties.
-
Trip Planning: It serves as a comprehensive tool where users can click on map destinations for nearby recommendations, including lodging, activities, events, and dining options.
Encouragement from Tourism Secretary
Tourism Secretary Anne Sayers emphasizes the fleeting beauty of fall and encourages visitors to make the most of the season: “Add one more day to the vacation, detour to one more overlook, visit one more apple orchard… The Fall Color Report takes the guesswork out of planning.”
Features of the Fall Color Report
-
Filtering Options: Users can sort by the best currently reported colors for spontaneous trips or filter by the estimated week of peak color for future plans.
