Fall is the most colorful time of the year in Canada and one of the prime forest locations to witness Mother Nature's golden autumn foliage colors is at beautiful Algonquin Provincial Park in Ontario.
This images focuses in on a sample of the simple beauty that is found in vibrant red, orange and yellow leaves which have fallen from one of the hundreds of maple trees along the road to Rock Lake within the park. These leaves decorate the entire grounds and collectively greet visitors with a colorful carpet of natural wonder.

... stunning color changes at Algonquin Provincial Park. This annual and naturally occurring outdoor art show peaks for approximately 7-10 days in late September to early October, resulting in radiant reds, glorious oranges and brilliant yellows.
Contrary to popular belief, sunny days do not always provide the best fall color tour viewing. Overcast and even rain tend to enhance the leaf vibrancy, making any day in the small window of opportunity worth going out for a look regardless of the weather.
Algonquin Provincial Park is dominated by 34 variety of trees in two distinct forest types, deciduous (meaning temporary or tending to fall off) and coniferous (meaning needle-leaved.)
Established in 1893, the 116-year-old Algonquin Provincial Park is also notable as being the first provincial park ever created within Canada. Over a dozen trails traverse its 7,653 sq km. Information on 18 self-guided tours are available from the park office.
Walking the well-marked trails is the optimal way to experience the colorful show up-close and personally, allowing fall foliage enthusiasts of all ages the opportunity to see and feel autumn in one of Canada's most brilliant, long-preserved natural environments.
