Fall at the Mall will take your breath away, as the reflection pool doubles a sensory feast for your eyes amongst monuments and memorials. The National Arboretum is another ideal location for a scenic hike; the contrast of white columns against a backdrop of yellows, oranges and reds will have you grabbing your camera. These free-to-visit iconic park suggestions become even more scenic as the leaves change color and the paths display a carpet of fallen leaves. We suggest you wear layers while exploring, for the average high temps fluctuate between the upper 50’s and upper 70’s, while lows dip into the 30’s.
When you hanker for the warmth of an outdoor fireplace, DC has multiple choices. Numerous restaurants and bars in DC feature areas perfect for relaxing and shaking off the autumn chill with fireplaces and heaters to go with savory dishes and drinks to satisfy the appetite.
