Fall In Love With Beautiful Lake Geneva

With the seasons changing in Lake Geneva the colors are reflected in beautiful hues of red, gold and amber as lustrous leaves fall to the ground. There is an audible chill to the air as waves lap darkening shorelines. The dry snap of a twig on your walk to a bonfire, the coolness that catches your breath and the appearance of pumpkins and hay bales mark the welcomed changing of the seasons. Fall is beautiful in Lake Geneva. Just one reason to visit and take advantage of many area pumpkin farms, corn mazes, dining experiences, hiking paths and annual festivals.

Locals are fond of the shore path this time of year. With breezy temperatures and multiple natural hues, it’s the perfect time of year to get on your hiking gear and stroll the 26-mile lake path.
