Finding Fall Foliage Adventure With You Georgia RV By David Porter At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

In mid-August, the summer sun shines unrelentingly upon Georgia, as both the land and it's inhabitants bake in the sweltering heat. A walk from the house to the mailbox is cause for perspiration, and going out of reach of a pool or lake on the weekends is simply unthinkable. Though hard to imagine at this point in time, fall will soon be in the air.

In the next 6 weeks or so, early morning and evenings will get that crisp chill that requires a cozy sweatshirt or soft sweater to dispel it. The rays of the sun will seem pleasantly warm again, and puffy white clouds float through bright blue skies.

To some, the onset of fall is a welcome respite from the dense heat of the summer, making them look forward to apple cider and pumpkins. To a certain group of travelers, however, fall signifies something else: the time for a drive to see the incredible colors of changing leaves.

Before you put your recreational vehicle in storage make sure you check out the foliage this fall.

Georgia RV enthusiasts are known for their love of adventure, travel and nature, and a trip in search of the season's prettiest fall foliage qualifies on all three counts. Those in the know, the experts at many Georgia RV dealerships, suggest hitting the road in late October or early November for the brightest colors. While there are many mountain drives in Georgia and the surrounding areas that offer crisp, pretty autumn colors, Chattahoochee River Road is one that exemplifies what a fall foliage drive should be.

The rural route runs for 14 miles throughout the Mark Trail Wilderness, a 16,000 acre preservation area teeming with wildlife, streams and mountains that's within the Chattahoochee National Forest. The gravel path winds and weaves through forests that are sure to be popping with color by the fall. Don't forget the camera on this Georgia RV trip- you'll certainly want to snap some photos of the serene natural scenery and deep rust colored foliage.

If there are any crafty folks along for the drive, the rest of the group might wish they'd brought a toy hauler to store the bundles of fall leaves the domestic diva is sure to gather up. Arts and crafts ideas for fall leaves are plentiful, and for many people, a fall drive in their recreational vehicle is the only way to capture supplies.

This rustic, gravel path feed into GA 75 and ends just north of Helen, GA. While the fall Foliage portion of this Georgia RV adventure may be over, the fun is just beginning! Helen, as any GA recreational vehicle dealer will tell you, is a very popular fall destination. A re-created alpine village of cobblestone streets and old-fashioned details of gingerbread trim, Helen is known for its Oktoberfest. Actually the longest Oktoberfest in the Southeast, Helen's begins in the middle of September and runs through October.

Festivities begin during the day, with the whole town in a celebratory mood as they stroll the local shops and visit beer gardens. To further enhance the alpine feel, some shops offer instruction in the lost art of candle making, or show off collections of cuckoo clocks. At night, the town hall, or Festhalle, is the place to be and enjoy German bands, German dancing, German food, and, of course, German beer!

With several GA RV campgrounds very nearby, the fall foliage tour and Helen trip can easily be an overnight stay. That is, if there's room for everyone in the RV after packing in the leaves, candles, German beer and cuckoo clocks!
