ATA has extended their hiking season due to demand and a late foliage season till October 16th

The days are getting shorter and the leaves are starting to turn. The weather is mild and pleasant, fall is here! Some of the best hiking of the year is waiting. There is more wildlife to see, including migrating birds. Fewer hikers on the trail, no insects and the cool air makes an easier time on the trail.  We suggest October 7th-16th for peak foliage viewing. Don't wait until the last minute to book, please call 1-888-855-8655 to inquiry.
