Fall is right around the corner, and here at Kittatinny, we are ready for it! From cooler temperatures to cozy sweaters, the fall season has a little something for everyone. But how can we forget the breathtaking fall foliage that will surround our campgrounds in the Catskill and Pocono Mountains?! We've gathered everything you need to know about fall camping this season — including when the colors will be at their peak, recommendations on the best spots to view the foliage, and fall activities & events you won't want to miss at our campgrounds.

Pennsylvania Fall Foliage Prediction Map

While predicting the exact dates of peak fall foliage is always a bit of a guessing game, we can confidently anticipate that the colors will reach their peak in Milford, PA, during the week of October 21-28, 2024. This timing is perfect for one last camping getaway before our campgrounds close for the season on October 26.

Mid-October is an ideal time to soak in the crisp autumn air and the vibrant hues of fall. For a more detailed view of the Pennsylvania fall foliage map, check out the predictions on the Almanac or American Forests websites.

We still have a variety of luxury cabin rentals and campsites available! If you're a glamper at heart, our best value cabin option is the Kittatinny Cabin. Equipped with a full bathroom, kitchen, a spacious porch, and accommodations that sleep up to 6 people (including a private bedroom!), this Pennsylvania cabin is the ultimate choice.

For our fellow RVers, our best value campsite option are our Standard Pull-thru RV Sites! These sites offer full hook-ups, a picnic table, fire ring, and charcoal grill. Be sure to book your site soon — our spots tend to sell out fast!

For the best tent camping experience, we recommend our Creekside Basic Tent Sites. These sites offer a rustic camping experience, perfect for those who want to fully embrace the outdoors.

New York Fall Foliage Prediction Map

In Barryville, NY, we expect the fall colors to peak during the week of October 19-26, 2024. This is the perfect time to embrace the fall spirit, whether you’re cozying up in your cabin or exploring the stunning fall foliage in the Catskills. And since our campground closes on October 26, it's the ideal time to squeeze in a final autumn adventure.

Whether you’re looking for a cozy cabin or a prime campsite, we’ve got you covered. Our Evergreen Riverview Cabin is perfect for those who want all the comforts of home while enjoying the great outdoors. With a full bathroom, kitchen, and space for up to 6 guests, it’s a top pick for fall campers.

For RV enthusiasts, our Deluxe Back-In RV Sites offer the perfect combination of convenience and comfort, with full hook-ups to set up your home away from home. Don't wait too long to reserve your spot—our sites fill up quickly during the fall season!

For the best tent camping experience in New York, we recommend our Riverfront Basic Tent Sites. These sites are located right along the Delaware River, providing stunning views and the soothing sounds of the water. Imagine falling asleep under a canopy of stars and waking up to the golden hues of autumn reflected on the river.

Nearby Areas for the Best Fall Foliage

As many of our campers know, both our New York and Pennsylvania campgrounds offer stunning views of fall foliage, but the surrounding areas are also worth exploring for even more photo opportunities. Here are a few places we recommend for scenic views of the fall colors:

Hawk's Nest, NY
Just a short drive from our Barryville campground, Hawk's Nest offers one of the most scenic drives in New York. The winding road, perched high above the Delaware River, provides breathtaking views of the Catskills, especially as the leaves change. It's a must-visit spot for any fall foliage enthusiast.

Bushkill Falls, PA
Known as the "Niagara of Pennsylvania," Bushkill Falls is a series of eight waterfalls nestled deep in the Pocono Mountains. The surrounding forest explodes with color in the fall, making it a perfect day trip from our Milford campground. The trails range from easy to moderate, so it's suitable for all ages.

Minnewaska State Park Preserve, NY
Located a bit further from Barryville, but worth the drive, Minnewaska State Park Preserve offers stunning vistas of the Shawangunk Ridge. The park's diverse landscape of cliffs, waterfalls, and dense forests turns into a vibrant palette of reds, oranges, and yellows during peak foliage.

There’s a lot to look forward to this fall camping season, and we hope we've supplied everything you need to know about the Catskill and Pocono fall foliage timeline so you can better prepare for this autumn.
