"The Adirondack Mountains in upstate New York are often cited among the top destinations in the U.S. for viewing fall foliage. This is due not only to the impressive array of colors that blanket the mountains each autumn but also for the longevity of the area's fall foliage season, which is one of the lengthiest in the country. This dramatic scenery can be viewed while hiking along trails or driving on scenic roadways."
"Rail biking has become increasingly popular over the past several years. For those unfamiliar with this eco-friendly activity, rail biking essentially involves pedaling a vehicle that's a cross between a bicycle and a rail car down an abandoned rail line. Rail bikes come in various configurations to accommodate anywhere from one to four passengers, with two-seat and four-seat models being the most common."
"Given the recent surge in popularity of rail biking, it's not a surprise that there are actually a number of such tours being offered for fall foliage in the Adirondacks as well as other popular leaf-peeping destinations in New York. Adirondack Railbike Adventures offers tours from two locations - Old Forge, which features a pair of different routes, and Tupper Lake. Revolution Rail operates from three locations - North Creek, Hadley, and Warrensburg."
The Adirondack Mountains in upstate New York offer extensive autumn colors and a prolonged fall foliage season that makes them a premier leaf-peeping destination.
