Traveling through California this fall? Then you're in for a treat -- as the Golden State lives up to its name, and then some, as majestic California mountains and valleys take on the multi-colored hues of Autumn. Leave Hollywood and head north for an all-natural movie set complete with technicolor backgrounds and breathtaking special effects. Nominated for best California fall color are places like Big Sur, the Bay Area, the Napa Valley, and Humboldt Redwoods State Park. But usually the golden Oscar goes to (you guessed it).... Yosemite National Park. 2025 California Fall Foliage Reports : California Fall Color
