Door and Kewaunee counties approaching peak fall colors

If you are waiting until the last moment to book your fall colors retreat to Door and Kewaunee counties, you might want to consider pulling the trigger.

 

The Travel Wisconsin Fall Color Report shows Door County is at a 45 percent peak and the Algoma Area is at a 35 percent peak based on their most recent reports from last Thursday and Friday respectively. That places the estimated week of peak colors to be next week for Door County and sometime later this week for the Algoma area. By comparison, Green Bay is at 65 percent and Oconto County is at 75 percent.

 

Travel Wisconsin has already declared Burnett County and the Rhinelander Area as places you are better off waiting until next year and nine other spots as “fading peak.”

 

The news comes after a Florida car dealership listed the Door County Coastal Byway as the third-best place in the state and the 120th place in the nation to go for a drive to admire the fall colors. It also comes in between two of Door County’s biggest festivals of the season: Egg Harbor Pumpkin Patch last weekend and this weekend’s Sister Bay Fall Fest.
