New York in the Fall

I%26#39;ve been to New York in Spring, Summer and Winter and this year I want to visit in the Fall. Does anyone know roughly when the leaves in Central Park will look their best ? Or is it too hit and miss to say ?

New York in the Fall

It does vary year to year, but generally the leaves in Central Park turn mid October. It%26#39;s so beautiful in the fall.

What%26#39;s your favorite season so far?

New York in the Fall

I think December 2005 has been my favourite so far because it snowed and Central Park looked wonderful. May last year was also great as the weather was perfect. I also visited in July 2005, but it was far to hot for me.

Cheap flights are available from November 1st, maybe that could be a little late for the Fall colours.

The NYC Parks Dept has a ';leaf cam'; in the fall, and reports on color change in the area.

';Leaf peeping'; is very popular in the Northeastern US, so there are plenty of websites devoted to autumnal travel for leaf color.

Leaf color depends on amount of rain in the summer and low temps at night in early fall . Therefore, since we%26#39;ve been having a lot of rain already, it could be a good leaf color year!

Try Googling ';leaf peeping central park new york city.';

This is a fun article from last year:

You could also enter ';leaf peeping'; in the search box for great previous posts.

As already explained, the change in color of the trees vary form year to year but the ';usually'; peak color in Central Park is the end of October. If you come to NYC to early and the trees in CP have not changed, you can take a trip north and you will run into the color change.
