It's no secret we love New Jersey in the fall. The weather hits the perfect mild temperatures, Halloween and Thanksgiving festivities arrive, and of course, there's the changing of the leaves. The colorful foliage explosion makes any place in New Jersey more gorgeous, but we especially love what it does to some of our favorite waterfalls in the state. Consider Greenbrook Falls, which will soon be surrounded by beautiful fall colors in New Jersey.

The Palisades might be one of the prettiest places in all of New Jersey — and it's right across the Hudson River, facing New York City.

The steep, vertical cliffs are probably the most famous aspect of the Palisades.

And as you can see, the forest is positively blanketed in colorful leaves during the fall.

It's the perfect place to go if you want to see amazing fall foliage in New Jersey.

The Palisades is also home to one of the state's prettiest waterfalls: Greenbrook Falls.

It's located in Greenbrook Sanctuary.

This waterfall is stunning from every angle.

It's definitely worth the hike to see.

Greenbrook Falls is 250 feet tall, gushing down the cliffs into the Hudson River.

That's a lot of water!

And while we can appreciate the majesty of Greenbrook Falls any time, we have to admit it might be prettiest at fall.

(We love the lush greenery, but still!)

When the leaves of the forest surrounding this waterfall change colors, it creates such a vivid contrast against the falling water.

It's just such a gorgeous sight, and it only happens once a year!

But if you miss the fall foliage — it can be tricky to make sure you get there at the right time — don't worry!

Even during the coldest, most dead months of the year, Greenbrook Falls is still lovely.

Greenbrook Falls can be viewed with a visit to Palisades Interstate Park. Taking the Huyler's Landing Trail provides views of the falls. For more information and photos check out the Huyler's Landing Trail page on AllTrails.The area can be accessed throughout the year, but visitors say it's incredibly fantastic in the spring, summer, and fall. Before you head out, tell someone where you're going and when you plan to return. You'll also want to make sure you have layers, just in case the weather changes. Bringing along the right gear can make the difference between a good trip and a great one. I love the views here and recommend bringing your camera to enjoy the Palisades.

Palisades Interstate Park is a great place to get up close to New Jersey's natural beauty. We highly recommend visiting throughout the year to be sure to capture the beauty with a variety of backdrops.
