Maine Fall Foliage Maine scenic drives by region

Maine's foliage season runs roughly from mid-September to mid-October, but this varies widely depending on weather, topography and geography. During this time, the deciduous trees of Maine begin their colorful transformation.

Columbus Day Weekend is often the focal point of fall foliage excursions although "peak colors" usually arrive well before the end of October in most of northern and central Maine. Travelers should plan ahead and arrive early to avoid the crowds and get the pick of Maine's better lodging accommodations.
