Think you missed the fall colors? Think again! While it’s true that peak leaf peeping in higher elevation spots has passed, Glenwood Springs is just getting into its golden groove. 🧡

Here in the Land of Water, we are at a lower elevation and lucky enough to enjoy a longer, more vibrant fall season that stretches well into October.

The trees in Glenwood Canyon typically go bright yellow in early to mid-October, and the aspens at Sunlight Mountain are breathtaking throughout the month. In town, you'll catch colorful fall views all the way into late October and even November.

So, what are you waiting for? Book that spontaneous getaway and soak in every bit of fall while you can! 🍁 www.visitglenwood.com
