The Great Falls In New Jersey Will Soon Be Surrounded By Beautiful Fall Colors

The leaves have already started changing color in some parts of the state. We can’t wait for the striking shades of red and gold on the trees, especially around our very own Great Falls. Beautiful all year, fall is a great time for families and photographers alike to take a scenic day trip.

According to local foliage prediction maps, peak foliage around the falls will be between October 5th and October 19th. However, any time between now and the end of the first week of November should be quite lovely.

​​Enjoy vibrant colors and one of the largest waterfalls by volume on the East Coast. 
Paterson Great Falls National Historic Park also offers a welcome center, tours, and a nearby museum, though there are currently closures due to COVID. Even still, the park is worth a visit! You’ll get to enjoy the scenic views seen in the video below, shot at the end of October 2015 by RCHeliCamInc​

An urban oasis with wheelchair and stroller accessible paths, this is a popular spot for artists, photographers, and families. There are also picnic tables available!
