There’s something special about Autumn. Its weather, its colors-- everything is just perfect! And our beloved state of Pennsylvania happens to have some of the most breathtaking fall foliage in the US! Here are the top 3 places to visit within a 2-hour drive from Easton to see the fall colors in The Keystone State!

1. Ricketts Glen State Park - If you are a fan of waterfalls, Ricketts Glen State Park is the best place to visit (especially during Autumn)! Besides the incredible, diverse color of the leaves, the park is also free from crowds, especially during the week! If you have the time, you can also hike alongside the Falls Trail and check out all the 23 named waterfalls of the park, whose beauty is only exacerbated by the colors of the fall season!

2. Jim Thorpe - Famous for hosting Fall Foliage Weekends the first three weekends of October, this small town is probably the best-populated area to attend in Autumn! And the town isn’t even the cherry on top! The nearby Lehigh Gorge State Park’s forests are incredible, and the park can genuinely awaken the pioneer spirit in you with its hiking areas.

3. Bowman’s Hill Tower - Located along the famous Delaware River, the hilltop’s view is incredible in Autumn. If you look closely, the colors of the leaves there resemble the mane of a lion! The woods around the hill tower provide an amazing place for enthusiasts and observers alike during the peak of the Fall season.

Now before you start the engine for your upcoming fall foliage road trip, we’d love to help you prepare your car! Fall is notorious for its rainy weather, making the roads quite slippery and deteriorating their condition. To avoid any incidents, you have to keep your car in top shape and leave it to get checked by the best mechanics possible, which is where we come in! Please schedule an appointment for service and repair through our website. Jeff’s Automotive is located at 4110 William Penn Highway, Easton, PA 18045, and our business hours are Monday - Saturday from 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM. We look forward to serving you soon!

Filters are easy to forget because they do their work quietly. You do not see them cleaning the air, fuel, or oil while you drive. You only notice them when the car starts smelling musty, losing power, using more fuel, or acting like it has not been serviced in too long.

Pennsylvania state inspections and emissions testing can feel stressful when you are not sure what the shop is looking for. Your car might drive fine around town, start every morning, and still have a problem that keeps it from passing. That is what catches many drivers off guard.

A cold A/C vent feels simple when everything is working. You press a button, set the temperature, and expect cool air to show up. Behind that, the system is moving heat out of the cabin instead of creating cold air from nothing.
