Taking an autumn adventure on Blue Ridge Scenic Railway in Georgia truly is the fall event of the year.
All trips along Blue Ridge Scenic Railway begin at the historic deport in downtown Blue Ridge, Georgia which was built in 1905.
Each regularly scheduled trip clocks in at around 26 miles round-trip, which equals to about 4 hours of train time, with a two hour layover in two separate towns along the route.
Visitors get to climb aboard and be whisked off into other areas of Georgia, including the charming town of McCaysville, as well as Copperhill, Tennessee, in order to witness all the splendor these small towns bring.
But perhaps the most exciting trip to take along Blue Ridge Scenic Railway is the autumn foliage ride!
The Fall Foliage train ride begins at the end of September and runs all the way through the beginning of November, which provides peak timing to witness the leaves changing colors.
Fall Foliage trips take place on Fridays and Saturdays with departure times from 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.
All you need to do is visit the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway website and purchase tickets on your chosen date—then sit back and wait for the fall beauty to unfold before your eyes.
