Everyone has a favorite place to enjoy autumn's grand display. Do you know of a perfect riverside spot to sit and watch the water as it winds through the fallen leaves? Or, how about a vista that envelops you with its 360 degree view? Tell us about it, and we will post it here for all our readers to enjoy.

Visitors Enjoy Ashevilles Fall Foliage

"Go to Little Switzerland, bear right at the Post Office onto Bearwallow Rd., which later turns into Crabtree Creek Rd. Follow Crabtree all the way to Hwy. 19 East. It's a beautiful drive beside a beautiful stream." - Phil from Shelby, NC (10/4/06)

"I enjoy the views anywhere on Biltmore Estate, especially looking out over the Deerpark and toward Mt. Pisgah. Also, the drive to Chimney Park/Lake Lure on Route 74 is beautiful, and then toward Hendersonville on Route 64. Of course, anywhere on the Blue Ridge Parkway is spectacular." - Theresa Thompson from Ormond Beach, FL (9/30/06)

"We like to go on South 276 out of Waynesville, and continue on 276 to the Blue Ridge Parkway, which we'll go on for a few miles for the views, then back on 276 to Brevard, then Brevard to Highlands, and on down to Franklin, then back to Waynesville on Hwy. 23. Spectacular views and many waterfalls." - Mike and Barbara McDonald from Waynesville, NC (9/8/04)

"We like the drive from exit 24 on Interstate 40 onto NC 209 to Hot Springs. It is a 40 mile mountain road with great views and a beautiful river alongside." - Lee Welch from Flint, MI (11/24/03)

"My husband and I go to the mountains three or four times a year. One of our favorite spots is Linville Falls. This year we will be staying in Linville Falls to enjoy the beautiful fall color and the cool crisp mountain air. Also visit the Apple Orchard at Altapass if you can. It's beautiful and smells wonderful." - Debra Poston from Pamplico, SC (10/13/03)

"I think the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is breathtaking with the leaves of many colors." - Irma Sanchez from Newberry, FL (10/10/03)
