Forget mourning the end of summer. Autumn might just be one of the best times of year to travel in Europe – bringing fewer crowds, lower prices and destinations at their most atmospheric.
From crisp countryside walks and fiery autumn colours to cosy cafés and seasonal celebrations, these are the trips on the Euronews Travel team’s bucket list for the “-ber” months.
Saskia O’Donoghue: Why I choose Bavaria (and Malta)
If I’m honest, autumn is my absolute least favourite time of the year, with trees slowly dying and the nights drawing in. I think my hatred of the season is down to how miserable it is in England, where I call home. More recently, I’ve been trying to embrace autumn in other places which do it properly.
Last year, I visited Czechia and Nova Scotia in Canada, both of which manage to make the fall very enjoyable. This year, I’m planning to head to Bavaria when the summer crowds have thinned, and the landscape turns shades of gold, orange and deep red.
