Nacogdoches is home to spectacular Fall color, but we have to wait a bit longer than our Northern neighbors. We typically begin to see changes after our first frost, which has not yet happened this year.

We typically expect peak to happen toward the end of November, early December this year! Just in time for the Nine Flags Christmas Parade on December 7th. We will continue to update this page, so check back often! You can also call the Visitor Center at 936-564-7351 or email info@visitnacogdoches.org for real-time updates.

10/31/2024 Update: We are experiencing small traces of Fall color, but this is likely due to drought conditions. We expect the "Big Show" to happen in early December.

Best spots to see Fall Foliage in Nacogdoches:

  • Ruby Mize Azalea Garden: The garden is known for it's beautiful Azalea blooms in the Spring, but also for the variety of Japanese Maple Trees and other flora that turn in the Fall.
  • Plaza Principal, Downtown Nacogdoches (Shopping, Dining, Wine Tasting and more!)
  • Texas Highway 21, also known as the historic El Camino Real has stunning Autumn views
  • Ag Pond on the Stephen F. Austin State University Campus
  • Millard's Crossing Historic Village
  • Lanana Creek Trail - Creek lined trail with beautiful trees and historic markers
