50+ Activities for Your Fall 2026 Bucket List in Bergen County

As lively as summer gets, we can all appreciate a cooldown. However, that doesn’t mean you totally have to be locked inside (fall weather rocks), especially with so many things to do around Bergen County. We’re calling all of our festival-goers, hayride appreciators, and PSL enthusiasts to embrace the season – and if you’re looking for ways to celebrate these colder months, we’ve got just the thing. The Bergen County Girl team has curated a guide to 50+ fall activities in Bergen County + the greater New Jersey area.

This list includes the best spots for fall foliage viewing, where to go pumpkin + apple picking, some of our favorite seasonal events, and other outdoor adventures — everything you need to have the perfect local fall. And of course, these are just 50 ideas to get you started; the opportunities are truly endless (and we write about them every day on our site, TheBergenCountyGirl.com). We also have an ongoing events calendar you can peruse each weekend here — and of course, add your own! It’s a FREE community resource, available 24/7.

Scroll for a little sneak peek of our guide below.
