The Ivoryton Pumpkin Chase takes place in peak foliage season of southern New England on October 21. The course begins along North Main Street for approximately ½ mile before turning left down Falls River Drive. At the one mile mark the course enters the Falls River Preserve for a 1.1 mile trail loop that meanders along the Falls River.
