The Best Places in New York to See the Most Beautiful Fall Leaves

What better way to kick off your Autumn adventure than with apple cider doughnuts? Technically not in the Adirondacks, Lakeside Farms is the perfect first stop on your way north. Turns out it makes the best sugary Fall confection in doughnut form around. Freshly baked, warm, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside . . . good luck eating just one. The plan here is to stock up, because these delicious devils will be accompanying you on an early-morning ADK adventure in the very near future.
