7Aspen, Colorado
While the East Coast is often celebrated for its fall foliage, the western U.S. offers its own stunning displays, particularly in Aspen, Colorado. Aspen trees dominate the landscape in this region, turning a brilliant gold against the backdrop of the towering Rocky Mountains. The Maroon Bells, one of the most photographed locations in Colorado, is especially striking in the fall. Visitors can hike, bike, or take scenic drives to enjoy the stunning contrast of golden aspens and rugged mountain peaks.
