Fun Fall Activities in New Hope and Lambertville 2024
With its gourmet dining, art, music and culture scene, walkability and river fun, we are not surprised that Travel & Leisure Magazine 2024 has named New Hope as one of America’s Best small towns and also Bucks County the #1 fall foliage destination in the US. We couldn't agree more!
Kelly and her team of Fox and Hound Innkeepers are experts on Bucks County and have years of experience helping guests get the most out of their getaway and can curate and organize your perfect customized vacation.
Fun Fall Activities
You should plan for at least a four-day visit to take it all in. Here is a small “autumnal taste” to whet your appetite.
Covered Bridge Tour
Bucks County is one of the birthplaces of covered bridge-building in America and is known for its unique collection of these cherished timber structures sometimes called "Kissing Bridges". Take a Self-Guided Driving Tourto marvel at them and the beautiful countryside roads dressed in Fall colors. Ask the innkeeper for some yummy home baked treats to take with you on your tour.
Stay overnight at Fox Hound B&B, see a play with this package and save.
View 100+ Festive Scarecrows
Peddler’s Village is celebrating 45 years of its Autumn tradition of its Scarecrows Display through October 27th. Over 100 handmade scarecrows line the brick pathways of the festively decorated Village. Some are inspired by famous characters, some are humorous, some are scary – but all of them are very entertaining and you can vote for your favorite scarecrows.
The innkeeper can direct you to more super fun places for Halloween entertainment and scares in Lambertville and New Hope including hayrides, apple picking and making smore's around a fire.
