Known as the autumn equinox<\/strong> \u2013 this marks the 1st<\/sup> day of autumn\/fall in the northern hemisphere. Meaning it\u2019s time to swap sunglasses for slippers, get cosy and relish the crunch of colourful leaves underfoot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6 cosy spots to celebrate the autumn equinox<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Crisp air. Beautiful scenery. Golden light. What\u2019s not to love?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New England (USA)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"New<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In United States\u2019 northeast, New England\u2019s reputation as the world\u2019s most picture-perfect spot to mark the autumn equinox is well-founded. Every inch of Boston, Maine, Massachusetts, Vermont, Connecticut, New Hampshire and Rhode Island (and its National Parks) is ablaze with fall foliage \u2013 affording stunning walks, hikes and drives. To start, you must ride along some of the 90km-long Kancamagus Highway that meanders along the Swift River in New Hampshire\u2019s White Mountains \u2013 past impossibly tall trees, delicate waterfalls and bright woodland cutaways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elsewhere, history buffs should walk Boston\u2019s Freedom Trial past monuments that reveal American Revolution history. And don\u2019t leave without time in Maine\u2019s Acadia National Park, where you can climb Cadillac Mountain for a sensational sunrise (this is the first place where the sunrise appears in the USA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New York<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"New<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Despite its reputation as \u2018The city that never sleeps\u2019, New York has a refreshingly laidback and easy feel in autumn. As heavy summer crowds disperse, space frees up for gorgeous walks through New York\u2019s Central Park and botanical gardens \u2013 ablaze with bright leaves. We recommend taking a blissful bike ride by the Hudson river, drinking in crisp autumn air \u2013 before parking up for brilliant New York bagel and head-sized hot chocolate. Plus, with authentic restaurants<\/a>, world-class theatre and comedy at every turn \u2013 New York is guaranteed to give you a special fall trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Montr\u00e9al (Canada)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Montreal<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A short hop across the US border, Montr\u00e9al offers a magical place to celebrate the arrival of autumn equinox. Despite being Canada\u2019s second biggest city, a tranquil pace of life is found everywhere (especially in its 21 major parks). Take in the vibrant art scene. Hop between artisan coffee shops. Watch live hockey or and jazz. And venture to the city\u2019s highest point, Mount Royal, for a stunning view of autumn oranges and reds lighting up the city. Do it all (and uncover the history of this French speaking spot) on Trafalgar\u2019s <\/em><\/strong>Best of Eastern Canada (end Montreal)<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salzburg (Austria)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Salzburg<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Tucked between the Alps and the Salzach River, Salzburg is a stunning spot to witness nature\u2019s shift in autumn. Plus get a big helping of authentic culture at the same time. Known as \u2018The Stage of the World\u2019 or \u2018City of Music\u2019 (because Mozart and the Sound of Music\u2019s Von Trapp family were born here), Salzburg\u2019s musical spirit is truly alive in autumn. You will hear beautiful music as you walk the wide, cobbled streets \u2013 where lederhosen-wearing locals enjoy a beer and strudel at side-bars. Top tip: arrive during The Salzburg Kulturtage Festival<\/a> (28 September-23 October) shortly after autumn equinox to enjoy 20 musical events in streets, churches and wine bars. Ranging from brass, opera and classical music to tango. Interested? You can explore it all and head to the setting of the Sound of Music film on Trafalgar\u2019s Imperial Europe tour<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lake District (England)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"autumn<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The crunch of leaves underfoot is extra special in The Lake District, where gigantic lakes, mountains, running rivers, waterfalls and stunning walking routes engulf you from all sides. This is a stunning place to free your mind \u2013 and it\u2019s no surprise famous writers and poets like Beatrix Potter and William Wordsworth found inspiration here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nestled in the foot of mountain fells, we recommend strolling Grasmere village to taste world-famous gingerbread and soak in laid-back local life. Plus cruise the giant Lake Windermere by boat, taking in the mountain peaks and sleepy villages as you go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a hike, there\u2019s no better place to unwind than a cosy local pub for a Cumberland sausage, sticky toffee pudding and local ale. The Lake District is pure bliss, especially following the autumn equinox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scandinavia\u2019s Northern Lights<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Finland\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The autumn equinox is a sweet spot for northern lights viewing because the earth\u2019s axis tilts more towards the sun\u2019s solar wind during this time (and this reaction causes the lights to appear).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And because Scandinavia ranks among best places to see the northern lights<\/a>, we suggest travelling to Norway, plus Finnish and Swedish Lapland for your best chance of seeing these green, yellow and red hues ripple across the night\u2019s sky. Unlike winter, weather conditions are more favourable for outdoor exploring \u2013 and you will find no shortage of amazing hikes and scenic views along the way. Just don\u2019t forget your camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
