october might just be the best month to visit ariz october might just be the best month to visit arizona 🍂🌵

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 there’s SO much to do this month.

a few things to know before visiting arizona in october:

🍂 head north for fall colors — flagstaff, oak creek canyon, the mogollon rim + white mountains are some of my favorites
🥾 october is one of the best months to get back on the trails
🎃 phoenix has pumpkin patches, fall festivals + plenty of seasonal events
🏕️ desert camping season is starting, but northern arizona nights can get COLD
☀️ phoenix can still be pretty warm during the day, especially early in the month
❄️ 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 🤎

save this for october in arizona + follow @danielleoutdoors_ for fall color updates & arizona travel ideas 🍁
