New Brunswick: The Best Fall Colours Ever!

A magical splash of colours. Thanks Mother Nature!    Where else in the world can you step out of your car, or hop off your bike, and just stand in a kaleidoscopic whirlwind of all-natural colour. Fall foliage  is to North America what cherry blossom season is to Japan. Magical and mystical. Several years ago I did a weeklong   inn-to-inn hike in Vermont at the height of fall colours, that magical time when leaves turn colour and progress through various shades of the rainbow...before eventually falling to the ground. A slightly-orange carpet would drape a mountain side one day, only to turn crimson red the next.  In Northern Ontario, I once stood under a stand of old maple in Algonquin Park on a windy afternoon in mid-September and was caught up in a miniature tornado of swirling pure-yellow leaves. I felt I was on the set of a Disney film. But one fall-colour mecca that was off my radar until two years ago: New Brunswick. I swear the entire province becomes on patchwork of red, amber, orange, yellow, rusty magnificence. Here are a few shots of fall foliage in New Brunswick.  It's worth the trip!
