When the air becomes crisp and leaves swirl around to the ground and crunch underfoot, everyone in Alabama knows two things are coming: SEC football and fall foliage. Fall in Alabama brings a plethora of fall foliage unlike anywhere else in the country. This year, don’t miss it sitting at home, journey to Calera and ride the rails of the old Alabama Mineral Railroad. Enjoy the changing colors as you never have before as you roll along the scenic Shelby County landscape. In Alabama, there simply isn’t a better way to watch the leaves as they turn from the deep greens of summer into their vibrant fall coloring.
