What to Expect This Fall in Georgia (And When the Leaves Will Turn)

Fall is officially here, and that means one of the big questions many of us are asking: When will Georgia’s leaves start changing? If you’re planning weekend drives, hikes, or scenic trips, here’s what to watch for this 2025 fall season.


🍂 Foliage Timing: What the Experts Say

  • According to Georgia State Parks’ Leaf Watch, peak colors in the state’s highest elevations typically begin mid to late October, and then progress into November for lower-elevation areas. 

  • Recent forecasts indicate that north Georgia will likely see its most vibrant colors around mid-late October, while Metro Atlanta might hit peak color around early November

  • The Old Farmer’s Almanac suggests that while leaf change can start as early as mid-September in some places, the prime window usually falls in October—when crisp nights and mild days often bring out the best in color. 

  • Some predictive maps show that in 2025, visible change may begin in late October in many parts of Georgia, though localized spots—especially in higher altitudes—could tip earlier. 


📅 What You Can Do Now: Plan Smart for Leaf Season

  • Mark your calendar: Schedule trips to northern Georgia (mountain areas) between mid and late October for the best chance of seeing vibrant fall color.

  • Scout lower-elevation spots early: Areas closer to the Piedmont may start showing hints of change before the peaks hit.

  • Check updated foliage maps weekly: Tools like the Explore Fall map and Leaf Watch help track progress in real time. 

  • Pack for all weather: Fall days can shift from warm afternoons to cool evenings fast—layers, good shoes, and rain protection will go a long way.
