Explore The Breathtaking Colors of Fall
The best way to experience the breathtaking beauty of the fall colors is with Scenic Helicopter Tours. We provide an unparalleled view, allowing you to soar above the canopy and enjoy sweeping vistas of the colorful landscape from a unique vantage point. In Western North Carolina, the best time to see fall colors is typically from mid-October to early November. Peak foliage often occurs between the third and fourth week of October, but the exact timing can vary depending on elevation and weather conditions. Higher elevations, such as those in the Blue Ridge Mountains, usually see color changes earlier, often starting in mid-October, while lower elevations may peak slightly later. To maximize your chances of seeing vibrant autumn hues, plan your visit during this window and consider exploring various elevations to experience the full spectrum of fall colors.
Don’t miss out, our North Carolina location sells out almost every weekend in the fall!
