This 2-Hour Drive Through Utah Is The Best Way To See This Year’s Fall Colors
Utah’s fall foliage season is beautiful, but the season can be quite short. Before the snow sweeps in and the leaves are gone, you’ll want to hop in the car and take this beautiful scenic drive.
The Alpine Loop takes you from the base of American Fork Canyon on Highway 92, up past Timpanogos Cave and Sundance, then connects you to Highway 189, down through Provo Canyon.
The entire trip is around 26 miles, and you can travel it in roughly an hour...but why would you want to do that? Instead, take your time along the way and allow an extra hour so that you can bask in the fall splendor of Utah's favorite autumn drive.
...and the oaks and maples are rich shades of red and orange. Allow plenty of time to pull the car over to gawk at the gorgeous views, and take a few photos.

Make your way down Provo Canyon to complete the loop, or start here and finish at the foot of American Fork Canyon. Either way, you're sure to love this stunning display of fall foliage!
