Fantastic fall foliage brightens up any trip
Lake of the Ozarks
If the sight of brilliantly speckled hillsides and crimson-hued leafy boughs makes you "ooh" and "ah," the same scene reflected in calm lake waters is bound to intensify your admiration. Missouri’s Lake of the Ozarks is one place where the beauty of the fall season, particularly in late October, is even better, thanks to the area’s wide array of lakeside activities. Visitors can survey the Lake of the Ozarks State Park’s amazing collection of dogwoods, thong trees, and oak-hickory forests by foot or by boat along various hiking trails, or via boat on a unique aquatic trail, complete with markers that explain the sights along the way.
