Possibly the U.S. national park that is most associated with fall foliage, this two-state wonder is blessed with more than a hundred species of native trees—most U.S. parks have fewer than 20—that flourish in the oldest old-growth hardwood forest remaining on the east coast.
Nestled within these majestic mountains are picturesque towns that offer a blend of natural beauty, rich history, and unique culture. Here are ten of the most beautiful towns in the Alps that you should consider visiting.
