YOUR NORTH SHORE FALL GUIDE.
Autumn in New England is something truly special. The North Shore comes alive with vibrant foliage, crisp ocean breezes, and plenty of seasonal activities for families, couples, and friends to enjoy. From Peabody and Salem to Gloucester, Newburyport, and even up the coast to Portsmouth, NH, there’s no shortage of things to do this fall. At MINI of Peabody, we love celebrating everything local, and we’re here to guide you through some of the best fall experiences near you. These collection of Fall adventures will be perfect for exploring behind the wheel of a MINI Hardtop 2 Door or a versatile MINI Countryman SUV.
LEAF PEEPING ACROSS THE NORTH SHORE.
Fall foliage is one of the highlights of living in New England, and the North Shore delivers spectacular views. Local parks and reserves like Brooksby Farm in Peabody or Stage Fort Park in Gloucester are perfect for a weekend stroll or picnic surrounded by color. If you’re up for a scenic drive, cruise along the coast through Gloucester and Rockport, or head north toward Portsmouth, NH. With the go-kart handling of a MINI Cooper or the extra space of a MINI Countryman, winding roads and bright foliage make for an unforgettable autumn adventure.
SPOOKY SEASON IN SALEM, MA.
No fall guide would be complete without Salem. Known worldwide for its haunted history and Halloween spirit, Salem is the ultimate destination for spooky season. Visit the city’s many museums, explore haunted happenings, or simply wander the cobblestone streets decorated with pumpkins and lanterns. Whether you’re planning a family-friendly day trip or a festive date night, arriving in a MINI Convertible makes the journey as fun as the destination. Salem offers an unmatched autumn experience that feels even more special when explored in true MINI style.
COASTAL CHARM IN GLOUCESTER & NEWBURYPORT, MA.
For those who love combining crisp fall air with ocean views, Gloucester and Newburyport are must-visits. Gloucester’s beaches and harbors are quieter in the fall, offering a perfect spot for a peaceful walk or seaside picnic. Newburyport’s historic downtown comes alive with fall festivals, outdoor dining, and boutique shopping-ideal for a weekend outing. A MINI Cooper S gives you the perfect blend of sporty performance and compact size to navigate charming coastal streets with ease.
DAY TRIPS TO PORTSMOUTH, NH.
Just a short drive from Peabody, Portsmouth, NH offers a mix of history, charm, and seasonal beauty. Wander Market Square, enjoy a cozy café, or explore waterfront trails with foliage views. It’s a great destination for couples looking for a romantic fall day trip or families hoping to discover something new without venturing too far. A MINI Countryman ALL4 with all-wheel drive is a perfect companion for longer fall adventures, offering comfort, efficiency, and capability no matter the road.
LOCAL FALL FESTIVALS & OUTDOOR FUN.
