NEVADA CITY FALL COLORS
Fall is one of my favorite seasons in Nevada City, it seems everywhere you turn you can find a pop of color. If you’ve never experienced the Gold Country fall color it’s a great time to get outside.

FALL COLORS WALKS
Soak up the autumn colors, adventures await!
The stunning fall colors will make for a most beautiful backdrop on this walk through Nevada City’s historic cemeteries. Folk Trails Hiking Club will visit Pine Grove Cemetery on Red Dog Road. Our local cemeteries offer a glimpse into our past; we’ll learn more about some of the individuals who are buried here and pay our respects to those who have come before us.
The walk will be 3+ miles, mostly easy with a few hills. Wear comfortable clothing and shoes, the event is free and welcome to all, including dogs. If you can’t make the guided visit, here’s a link with more information to take a self guided cemeteries tour in Nevada City.
