New England is a huge area of the Northeast in the U.S. consisting of Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Maine, Vermont, and New Hampshire. Although these states all possess their own unique charm, scattered throughout them you will find some of the most amazing hikes that our country has to offer. These hikes are far from the big city, and out in the wilderness. Many would agree that the fall season is the most beautiful time of year for the area, where you will find endless trees of magnificent color painting the scenery. This seemingly infinite mass of leaves scattered about however, along with unpredictable weather conditions, can create great danger for those looking to explore. Especially those who are not prepared.
