From road tripping along California’s scenic coastline to exploring its famed national parks, there’s a lot to do in the state. However, when you think about where to go to see some fantastic fall foliage, California probably isn’t top of mind. But we’re here to change that. While the palm trees and the redwoods on its coast will stay green year-round, many of the trees in the foothills of the Sierra Mountains turn the classic yellows, oranges, and reds of fall that you might expect to see in New England. There’s no better way to really embrace autumn in California than by taking in those beautiful changing colors while enjoying some classic fall activities at Apple Hill near Placerville in El Dorado County.
