Autumn’s rolling right along, probably a little bit too quickly for some of us. As the leaves begin their transformation from vibrant shades of green to brilliant hues of gold, red, and orange, we have a very short time to soak up the splendor of the fall foliage. Make the most of every moment by climbing aboard this fall foliage tram tour in Missouri that promises some of the best views of the season.

Go on a mid-week adventure aboard the fall foliage tram tour, slated to set off on Oct. 18-19, 2023, from Katy Trail State Park in Rocheport.
