If you're already dreaming about those fall colours, then you'll want to plan a trip to this stunning spot in Toronto this season.

A particularly beautiful autumn trail is the Orchard Trail, which will take you along a rugged pathway lined with apple trees. You'll be able to soak up spectacular views of the vibrant foliage and Rouge Creek while you breathe in the crisp fall air along this 2-kilometre section.

Another popular autumn spot to explore is the Vista Trail, which will take you to a two-level lookout platform with views of the Rouge River Valley.
