Premier Fall Photography Locations Across New Hampshire

The White Mountains

Address: North Central New Hampshire

Fall foliage season shows off in spectacular fashion in the White Mountains. With elevations that range from low valleys to tall peaks, you'll see an incredible variety of colors across the landscape. One of the reasons this area is such a favorite is that the wide range of tree species changes color at different times during the season. That means you can plan multiple trips and experience something new each time. The area also provides a helpful foliage tracker so you can follow the progression of the season, upload your own photos, and admire the work of other leaf peepers.
