For many people, leaf-peeping activities are limited to taking a drive to a scenic overlook – and that’s just fine, but if you want to experience autumn’s palette in a new way this season, these 10 ways offer their own unique view in Dublin, GA.
1. Fall Foliage
Cemeteries are the perfect place to enjoy autumn because they are often designed as park-like settings where you can surround yourself in a kaleidoscope of fall colors. Visit the Old Dublin Cemetery , listen to the audio box and learn history or just sit on a bench and take in the spectacular fall view.
2. Picturesque Farm
There’s nothing like the leaves changing colors to get you in the spirit for fall. Breathe in the crisp autumnal air while enjoying the warm hospitality at Dublin Farm Bed and Breakfast nestled on a picturesque 30-acre farm in the scenic countryside and at the on-site Ristorante da Maria open every Friday and Saturday nights.
