Witness Canadian Fall Foliage

Of all the four seasons, autumn wins in Canada. How can any season compete with it when it comes to watching how the fall leaves transform into the more vibrant colors of autumn? Nature simply takes over, repainting treetops with a blast of rustic flaming reds, oranges and yellows from their usual bright summer greens.

That’s why we’re heading north of the border this fall to see how the stunning fall foliage completely renovates Canada, from coast to coast. With the onset of fall, Canada’s already stunning backdrops are suddenly framed by the changing colors of the autumn leaves. That’s why we thought we’d share with you some brilliant reasons and Canadian locations to see the fall foliage this autumn.

Beautiful Fall Foliage

Wherever you go, the awe-inspiring changing of the seasons can invoke childhood memories and provides a stunning photographic backdrop for any seasonal birthday or engagement celebrations. However, you certainly don’t need to be a ‘leaf peeper’ to appreciate the changing colors of autumn.

Canada’s most famous native tree has to be the maple. But, did you know that Quebec collects and produces over 70% of Canada’s maple syrup – or as the locals call it, liquid gold? Located just outside Quebec City are the famous Laurentian Mountains. Locals say there isn’t a more scenic setting on earth to consume some amazing maple deserts and treats, surrounded by the fiery autumnal tints of the region’s trees and fall foliage.

Outstanding Landscapes

Some of Canada’s most spectacular autumnal scenery has to be found in New Brunswick, where the landscape showcases its fall foliage in its prime. Using the capital of Fredericton and Best Western Plus Fredericton Hotel & Suites as a base, take in the views as the Saint John River Valley as it erupts with gorgeous crimson shades. Additionally, check out our Fall Colours in New Brunswick guide for more ideas about other iconic New Brunswick scenic settings.

If you’re seeking Canada’s ultimate picturesque geographical backdrops, all roads must lead to British Columbia this autumn. Head to the city of Langley and mix up some fall festivities with hiking and biking tours around the Golden Ears Provincial Park in all its fall foliage glory. Then, kick back every evening with the locals to enjoy some delicious pumpkin pie and feast at the famous Langley Cranberry Festival. Further enhance your trip by staying in town at the Best Western Plus Langley Inn.

Incredible Wildlife

In preparation for the long winter months, the fall leaves trigger Canada’s incredible wildlife into action. Every autumn in British Columbia, the majestic salmon run leads to unbelievable scenes, as the local grizzly bears fish from the stony waterfall ledges. Before their mammoth 15,000-mile winter migration to South America, golden and bald eagles can also be seen enjoying the rivers’ riches too.

For those looking to catch a glimpse of an authentic Canadian moose, head to Algonquin Provincial Park to admire the fall foliage there. Located just outside Huntsville, Ontario, visitors can immerse themselves in nature by canoeing and kayaking the lakes of Algonquin Provincial Park. Here you can find beavers, moose and deer strutting calmly through the lush autumn forest park setting. Take it all in while you rest up at the gorgeous Best Western Plus Muskoka Inn every evening, located just outside the park.
