Reminder to Mark Your Calendars for Fall Colors

The time is getting so close!

 

Any day now, the vast forests of Iron County will begin their spectacular transition from the bright green of summer to autumn’s brilliant palette of reds, yellows, and oranges. This is the most picturesque time of year in the Upper Peninsula, and the show is about to begin.

Historically, our peak Color Tour season kicks off in mid-September and runs for almost three weeks. That window is opening right now!

We're only a few hours north of the Green Bay / Fox Valley area, making for an easy and unforgettable weekend escape. So, mark your calendar, book your hotel, and take a tour (or a few!). There are endless ways to catch that perfect shot:

  • By Car or ATV: Explore over 1,200 square miles with only #onestoplight!
  • By Foot or Bike: Connect to over 500 miles of multi-use trails.
  • By Water: Paddle more than 300 miles of rivers and fish five blue-ribbon trout streams.

Don't miss out on the beauty. Pack the car and come spend a weekend with us—you'll be so glad you did.

Ready to plan? Visit our Fall Colors Tour Page for routes and then book your stay at one of our local hotels and lodges!
