Catch the Best Fall Foliage on These Hikes
We've been keeping an eye on the Pennsylvania foliage report, and parts of the state have already reached "peak color." That means the trees are looking good! So to catch a glimpse at the changing colors, we're taking a hike. In an interview from July, host Trenae Nuri, executive producer Matt Katz, and Hey Philly newsletter editor Siani Colón got recommendations from two Inquirer reporters, Frank Kummer and Jason Nark, who have hiked all over our region and have created a tool to help you figure out which Philly-area hikes fit your needs.
Check out the Inquirer's Take A Hike tool here.
