up north, the aspens are turning gold and the mornings are crisp. down in phoenix, hiking season is finally making its comeback. add in cute pumpkin patches, fall festivals, cozy cabin weekends + scenic drives and thereโ€™s SO much to do this month.

a few things to know before visiting arizona in october:

๐Ÿ‚ head north for fall colors โ€” flagstaff, oak creek canyon, the mogollon rim + white mountains are some of my favorites
๐Ÿฅพ october is one of the best months to get back on the trails
๐ŸŽƒ phoenix has pumpkin patches, fall festivals + plenty of seasonal events
๐Ÿ•๏ธ desert camping season is starting, but northern arizona nights can get COLD
โ˜€๏ธ phoenix can still be pretty warm during the day, especially early in the month
โ„๏ธ flagstaff + higher elevations can see freezing temps and even early snow (they just did!!)

and yes, you can go from saguaros to golden aspens in the same weekend ๐ŸคŽ
