Poconos Fall Foliage Report 2019 – #6 – Halloween Fun

Fall Foliage Report 2019 - Jim Thorpe Bike Trail

Poconos Fall Foliage Report 2019 – #6 – October 24, 2019, White Haven, Poconos, PA – Get in your car and get to the Poconos for the last weekend of the spectacle know as Autumn! The Poconos fall foliage season has peaked in the NEPA region of the Poconos, the temperature is still warm during the day and the color carpet on the Lehigh Gorge Bike Trail in Jim Thorpe is EPIC! The autumn in the world famous Poconos of Pennsylvania has one of the largest color pallets in the world of reds, yellows, oranges and purples.

The statewide peak for fall foliage is here! Sustained seasonable to below-average temperatures continue to assist the transition to fall colors throughout the state. Peak conditions range from the eastern Allegheny Plateau eastward to the southern Pocono region, including major parts of the eastern and south central Appalachians. Excellent color can also be found in the Laurel Highlands to the southwest. Today’s wind is likely to remove many past-peak leaves in the northern tier. Fall color should be prime throughout much of the commonwealth this week, but next week appears promising as well!

Poconos Fall Foliage Report – Northern Tier:  Delaware State Forest tracts are reported to be currently at peak color. Red maples, black gum, and sassafras are adding shades of red to the forest while sugar maples and birch are contributing yellow and orange. Most oaks have also changed to orange, russet, and red, adding a new component to foliage viewing. Excellent viewing can be found at Bruce Lake Natural Area south of US84, and along Route 402 from Peck’s Pond south into Monroe County. The Pinchot State Forest service forester reports that the northern part of the district (Susquehanna and northern Wayne counties) is past peak but still retaining some nice color.

Poconos Fall Foliage Report – Central Region: In the central part of the district (Lackawanna, Wyoming, and southern Wayne counties), peak conditions prevail. Luzerne County is just entering peak stage. Species now in full color are oaks, sassafras, red maple, sugar maple, birches, aspen, and black gum.

Poconos Fall Foliage Report – Southern Region:   Considerable fall color can be observed throughout the William Penn Forest District, especially to the north in Bucks, Berks, Lehigh, and Northampton counties. Many poplars are yellow and red maples have also changed. The forest understory is awash in shades of yellow in some areas from the beautiful and fragrant spicebush. A drive on Sportsman Road near the town of Robesonia is recommended for great fall color from poplars and sassafras. Excellent fall scenery can also be found at game lands and routes near Mt. Gretna and Brickerville.

Article Featuring PoconoBikeRental.com Owner, Tom Williams

From scenic drives to bike tours, the palette of the Poconos belongs to fall

If you’re looking for a different way to take in the fall foliage — sans an automobile — trade in four wheels for two. Pocono Bike Rentals offers tours through picturesque Jim Thorpe and White Haven. “The fall foliage is the best time of year and our second busiest month,” Tom Williams, owner of the rental company said. “Folks want to enjoy the trails and the autumn splendor from an aesthetic perspective.” The tours last about 3 to 4 hours and follows along the Lehigh Valley Gorge trail. “The trail ride is mostly downhill so anyone can do it,” Williams said. “We rent mountain bikes and performance 29s.”

VIP Pricing currently listed on our Fall Foliage Bike Tours page on our website is valid until October 25th.
