California fall road trip ⬇️🍁

LINK IN BIO for my full California fall colors guide with allll the places to spot fall leaves. But, if you're looking for an epic road trip across the best state in the USA, here's my ideal plan:

Start in Yosemite Valley, it's empty in the fall but stunning. The waterfalls will probably still be flowing and the mountains surrounded by leaves is heaven. Stay at the @yosemite_evergreen Then head to June Lake Loop, an underrated area of the Eastern Sierras. Kayak, hike, see Mono Lake. Then pop over to Hope Valley, stopping at Bridgeport for Buckeye Hot Springs or Travertine Hot Springs for a mountain soak. Stay at @desolationhotel_hv , they have cabin and yurts in the heart of the best fall foliage in California. Dine there, relax in their sauna and do hikes around the South Lake Tahoe area. @coachmanhotel is my fave South Lake spot for fall and winter stays. Apple Hill is your next stop, about an hour away from Tahoe. This will be the end of apple season to catch, and also plenty of wineries to visit. Last stop is Half Moon Bay for all the pumpkin patches and corn mazes!!!!

EEKKKK I can't wait for autumn!!!
