Preview: New England's dramatic fall foliage isn’t just an upcountry phenomenon. You can drink in the full palette of fall colors with picturesque views and grand panoramas at the largest of the Metropolitan District Commission parks, the Blue Hills Reservation. Just 18 miles from downtown Boston, the reservation is covered primarily with stands of hardwood forest that produce a succession of fall colors from the first reddening of the sumacs and swamp maples to the final solemn bronzes of the mighty oaks. The reservation is laced with 125 miles of trails, ensuring a surprising level of privacy in a preserve so near the urban center. As the two of you make your way through a woodland glade to emerge at an open outlook, you’ll have the distinct pleasure of having earned your views—together. This chapter is a true insiders’ guide revealing great nightlife, romantic hotels, intimate dining venues, secluded retreats, and much more.
