Some of the best places to see the beautiful autumn colours in all their glory include:

Don Valley Hills, Toronto

One of Toronto’s Discovery Walks, a programme of self-guided walks across the city, the Don Valley Hills and Dales walk will take you on a variety of long or short treks away from city traffic and along the Don River Valley.  All the prepared trails are suitable for family use and offer fantastic opportunities to see the beautiful autumn colours.

Algonquin Park, Ontario

Within close proximity to Toronto, this stunning park which is made up of forests, lakes and rivers offers the opportunity to see autumn foliage by foot or canoe.  Maple trees are at their best at the end of September or end of October, whereas the aspens, tamaracks and red oaks reach their peak in the middle of October.

Montreal, Quebec

There are many places to view the autumn colours in Montreal, from the top of Parc du Mont Royal in the middle of the city, to the Montreal Botanical Garden where the annual lantern festival (2 Sept – 31 Oct) coincides with the city’s autumn foliage season. Alternatively, just a short drive north of Montreal are the Laurentian Mountains which offer one of the most spectacular views of red, orange and yellow leaves displayed by a variety of different tree species.

All Air Transat flights include the added value of a 23kg allowance for hold luggage, meals and soft drinks on board, plus in-flight entertainment.
