When the leaves on the trees begin to change color, you know fall is on its way. With only a few weeks to enjoy the vivid reds, oranges, and yellows on display, our real estate agents like to visit special spots around town for a better view. Want to join them? Here are five of their favorite places to check out.

• Mammoth Cave National Park - 1 Visitor Center Parkway, Mammoth Cave, KY 42259
  Mammoth Cave National Park is a major natural attraction near our Edmondson County homes for sale. While it's best known for housing parts of Mammoth Cave (the world's largest cave system), it also boasts more than 80 miles of trails that take hikers through some of Kentucky's most beautiful forested lands. Several of these trails are fully accessible with paved paths and raised walkways, making this a great place for folks with mobility challenges to see the fall sights. 
  
  
• Baker Arboretum – 4801 Morgantown Road, Bowling Green, KY 42101
  Tired of seeing the same old oak, birch, and maple trees? Visit the Baker Arboretum to see just how varied trees can be. This garden near our Bowling Green homes for sale holds more than 600 species of trees and shrubs, many of which change their colors in the fall. Make sure you pick up a map at the visitor's center before heading onto the grounds so you won't miss any of the most impressive specimens.
  
  
• Chuck Crume Nature Park – 2035 Nashville Road, Bowling Green, KY 42101
  The entrance to Chuck Crume Nature Park is tucked away behind the Unitarian Universalist Church, making this 20-acre expanse something of a hidden gem in Bowling Green. It features beautiful forested walking paths perfect for an afternoon stroll among the fallen autumn leaves. There are also several picnic tables in the main clearing that you can use to eat a quick meal, chat with friends, or enjoy some quiet time alone.
  
  
• James Hines Park - 1222 Boatlanding Road, Bowling Green, KY 42101
  James Hines Park is nestled in a secluded spot on the banks of the Barren River.

However you spend your day, you'll love the serene atmosphere of this quiet little retreat.
  
  
• Fort Webb Park - 299 Fort Webb Drive, Bowling Green, KY 42101
