"Fall" in love with Louisville!

LOUISVILLE'S LEAVES LAND ON LONELY PLANET’S TOP 8 

My heart swells every year as the signs of fall slowly but steadily creep upon us. Autumn is my favorite season for so many reasons. Yes, I'm that "pumpkin spice everything" kind of gal! In addition to the flavors, aromas, and activities that fall brings, it's truly the cooler temperatures and changing foligae that gives me all the good feels this time of year. My beloved Kentucky is worthy of a visit anytime of year, but when guests ask me when I think is the best time of year to visit - you guessed it - it's fall. 

I was delighted to see Louisville listed among some of the most vibrant fall destinations, from the likes of Vermont (oh, my heart!) to the Blue Ridge Parkway to northern Oregon (so beautiful!). 

From the Lonely Planet article:

"If you’re seeing colors around Louisville, it doesn’t necessarily mean you’ve sampled too much of the local bourbon. You don’t even need to leave Kentucky’s largest city to enjoy the changing of the seasons. A stroll around the gas-lamp-lit St. James Court and the Old Louisville rows of Victorian-era homes is made all the more atmospheric by the colorful fall foliage.

Louisville has 50 miles of bike trails along the Ohio River and Floyds Fork, with more in the works as the city completes the long-planned 100-mile Louisville Loop path. A short drive south of the city takes you to Bernheim Arboretum and Research Forest, with over 40 miles of trails open to walkers and bikers, and a canopy tree walk that takes you 70ft up into the trees themselves."
