Fall can be a magical time. The leaves are changing, pumpkins are everywhere, and it’s time to get cozy. There are plenty of things to do to get into the Fall mood and even better to do them with someone special. This list will go over all of the Fall activities for couples. From pumpkin picking to cider drinking, let’s get the Fall festivities started!
Fall Activities For Couples
1. Bake something yummy.
Fall is a great time to bake delicious things, especially if you’re a pumpkin lover. A quick Pinterest search will return lots of options. Even better, try something you’ve never made before. It’ll be fun having a taste test at the end.
2. Go to a pumpkin patch.
The photo opportunity is worth it and it’s something you only get to do once a year. You can pick out pumpkins for carving later or just to set out around your home. The mini pumpkins are great for tablescapes and mantles.
3. Take a walk.
Find somewhere close by where you can enjoy the Fall breeze, sip on a hot chocolate, and admire the Fall colors of the trees. Taking a walk is so underrated, yet so refreshing. It’s a great time of year to be outside.
4. Pick out Fall candles.
Whether you go shopping for new ones or just peruse your candle collection in the closet, pick out Fall candles together to set out for the season. Light a couple of them to create a cozy vibe.
5. Go apple picking.
If you have an apple orchard around you, it’s super fun to go pick fruit from the trees. Sometimes, these farms will have extra activities or goodies to purchase as well. Pick up some fresh apple cider from the farm while you’re at it. You won’t be disappointed!
6. Have a bonfire.
Light up a fire outside or enjoy one inside. Sip on some hot cider and grab a blanket for cuddling.
7. Go to a football game.
Whether you’re a football fan or not, games have a fun atmosphere. You don’t have to go to a professional game to enjoy it. Local high school games or college games can be just as fun. Don’t forget to hit up the snack bar.
8. Read a book together.
Choose a book you will both read. Set aside time to read the book separately or listen to the audiobook together. Discuss after each reading or listening session.
9. Watch scary movies.
It’s the perfect time of year for a little suspense. Turn off the lights and turn on a good thriller. Remember to grab the popcorn and candy.
10. Go to a farmer’s market.
Fresh produce, flowers, and local goods are abundant at farmer’s markets. You always have to leave with a little something. It feels good knowing you’re supporting a local business and at the very least, you got out of the house for an hour or so.
11. Go on a road trip.
It’s an ideal time of year for a little weekend getaway or even just a short day trip to keep things more cost effective. It’s the sweet spot where the weather isn’t too hot anymore and it’s also right before the major rain and snow. A road trip gives you a chance to explore nearby cities and towns that you haven’t checked out yet.
12. Carve and decorate pumpkins.
Remember those pumpkins you got at the pumpkin patch? It’s time to get creative! Put on some music or binge something on Netflix while you decorate. You can do the simple carving or take it a step further and use paints, glitter, and jewels to jazz up your pumpkins.
13. Work on a puzzle.
Working towards a common goal together helps strengthen a relationship. A puzzle is a low-key, lighthearted way to work on something together. Grab a wine or a cider and spread out your puzzle pieces. Completing the edge first is always a good way to start.
14. Go on a hike.
Get active together. The weather is nice, the landscape is beautiful, and the endorphins you get after exercising help boost your mood.
15. Explore a small town.
Hiking not your thing? Pick a nearby town with a main street to walk and shop. Many small towns have charming downtown areas. Have fun eating, drinking, shopping, and walking.
16. Go thrifting.
Shop for new Fall outfits, accessories, and decor. You’ll be amazed at what you can find for so little. Thrifting is such a treasure hunt!
17. Get brunch.
Many breakfast places will have seasonal menus with yummy Fall flavors for a limited time. Pumpkin spice pancakes? Um, yes please!
18. Make soup.
Soup season is back! Soups can be fairly easy to make and so satisfying on a cozy night in. You’ll need a good dutch oven, ingredients for your soup, and a fresh baguette to go along with it. Homemade soup is perfect for a gloomy Fall night.
19. Go wine tasting.
Spend an afternoon at a winery sampling some wines. If you’ve never been, it’s a lot of fun. You can usually add on some charcuterie snacks and if you really like one of the wines you try, you have the option of buying a bottle.
20. Attend a Fall festival.
This will depend on where you live, but sometimes, local cities will put on some type of Fall festival. It may include food vendors, crafts, local goods, art, competitions, and activities. Look up Fall events near you to find one.
21. Have a paint night.
Pick up some supplies and paint a Fall scene. Don’t trust your creative abilities? Sign up for a paint night class. The instructor walks you through each step and by the end, you have a masterpiece that you had no idea you were capable of!
22. Go camping.
Unplug and connect with nature. Pack up and spend a night under the stars. Here’s a list of 18 camping essentials you need to bring in order to have the best time camping possible.
23. Pick out fresh pies.
Visit a bakeshop for some fresh baked pies to bring home. Top a slice with some vanilla ice cream or some caramel sauce and enjoy a delicious dessert for the week.
24. Hand out candy on Halloween.
Get into the Halloween spirit. Pass out candy to trick-or-treaters who come to the door. Bonus points if you wear a costume!
Enjoy
