NEW SITE UNVEILS COLOURFUL KENTUCKY

Fall has arrived, and with it the 2013 edition of Kentucky’s ColorFall program promoting travel to peak foliage viewing areas and autumn events around Kentucky. ColorFall is designed to aid public enjoyment of autumn in the Bluegrass State. Co-ordinated by the Kentucky Department of Travel and Tourism and the Kentucky Department of Parks, ColorFall is now in its 28th year. It features a web site (http://www.kentuckytourism.com/seasons) that provides a variety of information about the state’s beauty at this time of year, including reports on stages of leaf changes from naturalists at parks throughout the Commonwealth.

Besides tips on timing trips to parks, forests and arboretums for peak foliage displays, ColorFall web site visitors will also find listings of special fall events and a link to a Facebook page where they can upload digital photos of their own fall travels. The program, including the web site, runs Sept. 23 through Oct. 31. (http://www.kentuckytourism.com/seasons)
