Pocasset is a charming village located on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and offers a variety of activities to enjoy in the fall. Here are five must-do things in Pocasset and the surrounding area during the autumn season:
Explore the Scenic Beauty:
Take a leisurely drive or bike ride along the picturesque Cape Cod Canal. The fall foliage is stunning, and you can enjoy views of the canal, bridges, and the changing colors of the surrounding trees.
Visit the Bournedale Herring Run and Fish Ladder, where you can witness the annual herring migration. This natural spectacle usually occurs in the spring, but you might still catch some stragglers in the fall.
Hike and Nature Walks:
Hike the trails at the Four Ponds Conservation Area, which features a network of wooded paths surrounding four picturesque ponds. The fall foliage adds to the beauty of this natural area.
Explore the Buzzards Bay Coalition's beautiful preserves, such as The Knob in nearby Falmouth or the Bourne Sisters Woodland Preserve. These areas offer scenic trails and peaceful walks amidst the fall colors.
While the weather may be cooler in the fall, a peaceful beach stroll can be a delightful experience. Pocasset Beach and Monument Beach are great places to enjoy the tranquility of the Cape Cod shoreline while taking in the fall scenery.
Visit Local Farms and Farmers Markets:
Check out local farms and farmers markets to enjoy fresh produce and seasonal treats. You can pick your own apples at nearby orchards, like Perry Hill Orchards, or indulge in cider donuts, pumpkins, and other autumn goodies.
Bourne Farm, a historic property in the area, often hosts fall events like pumpkin festivals or hayrides.
Fall Festivals and Events:
Look for local fall festivals and events happening in the Cape Cod region. Some of our favorites include Pumpkin Day at Bourne Farm, New Bedford Food Truck & Craft Beer Festival, and Sandwich Fest. The Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce website is a good resource for finding events during your visit.
Relax on the Deck:
Our brand-new deck at Picture Perfect is the ideal spot to sip your favorite seasonal beverage, relax, and enjoy the leaves changing on picturesque Picture Lake. Looking to elevate your relaxation? Take a dip in the hot tub and bask in the beauty that surrounds this quaint, Cape lakehouse.
