As the summer season slowly fades away, we must reluctantly welcome fall with not-so-open arms. But fall isn't all that bad -- we get to look forward to the cozy sweaters, knit jumpers and of course, fall foliage.

These amazing destinations speak to the hearts of all outdoor lovers. So pack up your car, and go enjoy nature's beauty.
