October brings the park's best conditions. Fall foliage peaks across the maple and oak canopy while daytime temperatures hover in the mid-50s to mid-60s. Nights drop into the 40s and 50s. The bluff-top overlooks and trail system are at their most photogenic during this window. Weekdays are quieter than weekends. Bug spray is recommended for warmer months.
Peak season in October with peak fall colors; busiest time and top visitor draw.
