In today\u2019s blog, we\u2019re going to share some of the city\u2019s best fall activities so you can have a truly New England autumn.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tour the Boston Foliage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Known for its brilliant leaves, fall in Boston is beautiful in any part of the city. If you\u2019re in the mood to see some especially beautiful foliage, you might walk around <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boston.gov\/neighborhood\/beacon-hill\"><strong>Beacon Hill<\/strong><\/a>, one of the quaintest and most historic Boston neighborhoods. Here you\u2019ll find beautiful brownstones and fall leaves that will be sure to get you in the mood for autumn.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another great way to get outside in the city is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosekennedygreenway.org\/\"><strong>Rose Kennedy Greenway<\/strong><\/a><strong>,<\/strong> a 1.5 mile stretch of greenspace between the North End and Chinatown neighborhoods. Stop by a beer or wine garden, sit on one of the huge porch swings, or check out one of the many great food trucks along the Greenway. The Greenway also offers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosekennedygreenway.org\/calendar\/\"><strong>scheduled events<\/strong><\/a>, such as the Chinatown Farmers Market, an Artisan Market, and even a moonlight tango class!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For an escape from the busy city, try hiking through parts of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.emeraldnecklace.org\/\"><strong>Emerald Necklace<\/strong><\/a>, a 1,000 acre stretch of connected parks throughout the greater Boston area. The Emerald Necklace runs through a number of Boston neighborhoods and offers convenient walking paths for residents. If you\u2019re looking for a path near you, check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.emeraldnecklace.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Emerald-Necklace-Map.pdf\"><strong>map of the Emerald Necklace<\/strong><\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/arboretum.harvard.edu\/\"><strong>Arnold Arboretum<\/strong><\/a>, which is part of the Emerald Necklace, is another great place to get away from the bustle of city life and be alone in nature this fall. Also part of the Emerald Necklace is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boston.gov\/parks\/franklin-park\"><strong>Franklin Park<\/strong><\/a>, the largest open space in Boston. Franklin Park also offers expansive woods perfect for a fall hike. Both of these parks are a great option for seeing the fall colors and getting some walking in!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visit a New England Farm<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What is more fall than picking apples, eating a cider donut, and getting lost in a corn maze? Luckily, New England has plenty of apple orchards and pumpkin patches to visit this autumn! <a href=\"https:\/\/allandalefarm.com\/\"><strong>Allandale Farm<\/strong><\/a>, located in Brookline and accessible by bus, is an excellent option if you don\u2019t have a car in the city. In the fall, Allandale offers a variety of pumpkins and gourds, as well as apple cider donuts, garden plants, and fresh vegetables.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further out from the city, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.connorsfarm.com\/\"><strong>Connors Farm<\/strong><\/a> offers pick-your-own apple orchards, as well as a pumpkin patch, corn maze, and farm animals. With discounted tickets available for the weekdays, Connors Farm is a great place to have an outing with friends or a cute fall date! Starting September 28, you might join in the flashlight maize, a walk through the Connors Farm corn maze under the moonlight with no jump scares. If you\u2019re more inclined for a spooky walk, they also offer a Haunted Corn Field event that\u2019s perfect for spooky season!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/websites.emerson.edu\/grad-life\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/09\/Fall-blog-3-1.jpg\" alt=\"A line of apple trees with many apples fallen to the ground\" class=\"wp-image-3571\" width=\"429\" height=\"286\" srcset=\"https:\/\/websites.emerson.edu\/grad-life\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/09\/Fall-blog-3-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/websites.emerson.edu\/grad-life\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/09\/Fall-blog-3-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/websites.emerson.edu\/grad-life\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/37\/2023\/09\/Fall-blog-3-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 429px) 100vw, 429px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@ana_essentiels?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">Ana Essentiels<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/uRNjAWP08lE?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Located in Stow, Massachusetts, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shelburnefarm.com\/\"><strong>Shelburne Farm<\/strong><\/a> is another local favorite.

The city has plenty of ghost tours around downtown, both walking and via trolley. If you want or need to sit for most of the tour, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trolleytours.com\/boston\/ghost-tours\"><strong>Trolley of the Doomed<\/strong><\/a> is a great option. While riding one of the quaint Old Town trolleys, you\u2019ll get a 90 minute nighttime tour of some of Boston\u2019s old cemeteries and most haunted areas. The tour also passes the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.historichotels.org\/us\/hotels-resorts\/omni-parker-house\/ghost-stories.php\"><strong>Omni Parker House<\/strong><\/a>, Boston\u2019s most haunted hotel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If walking is more your speed, check out one of the multiple haunted walking tours of the city. <a href=\"https:\/\/usghostadventures.com\/boston\/\"><strong>Boston Ghosts<\/strong><\/a>, the city\u2019s top rated ghost tour, offers multiple different tour options, from a haunted bar crawl to a true crime tour of the city. Another popular choice is the <a href=\"https:\/\/ghostcitytours.com\/ghost-tours\/boston-ghost-tours\/death-dying-tour\/?gclid=Cj0KCQjwl8anBhCFARIsAKbbpySvbU9uSn4YJIKNQegj2PbdCHiD4Ln1pTUnkPZNPvSqGaZVhUJIsy0aAm_MEALw_wcB\"><strong>Death and Dying Ghost Tour<\/strong><\/a>, which focuses on death and the afterlife in colonial New England. This tour is adults-only and pet friendly, so feel free to bring your furry friend!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you like to take things at your own pace, consider a self-guided haunted tour. With some tours priced as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.viator.com\/tours\/Boston\/Self-Guided-Smartphone-Ghost-Walking-Tour-in-Boston\/d678-222222P10\"><strong>low as $5 per person<\/strong><\/a>, a self-guided tour is a great way to see the haunted sights of Boston on a budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking of spooky, Boston is just a train or car ride away from Salem, Massachusetts. Famous for the Salem witch trials, Salem is a great place to visit during the fall. You might visit the town\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salem.org\/listing\/salem-witch-museum\/\"><strong>witch museum<\/strong><\/a> or take one of the many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salem.org\/things-to-do\/tours\/\"><strong>spooky walking tours<\/strong> <\/a>available. About 40 minutes from the city by car or the commuter rail, Salem is a great place to take a day trip during your fall weekends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Go Whale Watching<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Boston, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boston.com\/travel\/travel\/2022\/03\/23\/everything-to-know-about-going-on-a-whale-watch\/\"><strong>whale watching season<\/strong><\/a><strong> <\/strong>lasts through mid-November, making it a perfect fall activity. One popular whale watching tour is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cityexperiences.com\/boston\/city-cruises\/whale-watch\/\"><strong>New England Aquarium Whale Watch Cruise<\/strong><\/a>.

This cruise also has a cash bar and both indoor and outdoor viewing spaces. The outing lasts 3-4 hours and visits the Stellwagen Bank Marine Sanctuary, which is a very popular area for whales to look for food, so you\u2019re likely to spot some whales.
