this year we visited, Bosnia, Croatia, Montenegro, southern Germany in the spring Southern Austria and northern Italy in the fall and saw spectacular waterfalls and water filled gorges. Attached are examples of the places we saw. Not attached are mountain hikes and hikes along very pretty lakes. We saw more than 10 water filled gorges in the fall. I am still sorting through the photos that my wife and I took.
Are there any places in the states that are similar that we can visit in the spring.

Yes, try Smokey Mtn. National Park and the Appalachian mountains.

Check out New York State, Adirondack and Catskill parks for a start, " Only in New York" frequently highlights hikes and scenes

The answer is yes! (These aren't great pictures, low res and one is a scanned photo...)
The landscape of Alaske is exceptionally beautiful for mountains. Also plenty of bays, inlets and shoreline. In New York State there are parks like Letchworth and Watkins Glen for gorges and waterfalls. The Appalachian Mountain Range, Rocky Mountains, Grand Canyon, the Badlands and Black Hills of South Dakota, Devil's Tower in Wyoming. Then there are the New England states with rocky shore lines, mountains, and so much history. Those are only a few. The United States is filled with so many beautiful and wonderous places to photograph. I wish I had availed myself of the opportunity to travel when I was younger to visit this vast, beautiful and outstanding country and take advantage of that travel so I could see it and photograph the scenes.

Check out central to eastern PA. Look up Ricketts Glen, Raymondskill Falls, Dingman's Falls, Bushkill Falls, and also look up waterfalls in the Delaware Water Gap area. If you want to travel a little farther, North Carolina boasts about 200 waterfalls. I have also found really nice falls in South Carolina, West Virginia, and Tennessee. DuPont State Recreational Forrest in North Carolina has some falls that you wouldn't want to miss.
Mr. canon guy. I should have said the photos were straight out of the d500 without post. What do mean by adjusting the color? was there something off with those that I posted wrt the color?
thanks to those that responded with places to visit. Some we have seen but most we have not. For what it is worth most of the hikes we took this year exceed 5 miles, some had elevation gains over 1000 feet, some in the rain and mud. The longest drive day was 5 hours and most of that was on the autostrada. The last vacation we stayed in 11 different places for as much as a week and some as little as 3 nights and only 2 days near the Rome airport. We took the rail into Rome. We have never seen the place as crowded as we did on October 25.
The thing that is hard to get past are that Airbnb in the states are more than twice what we pay in Europe. Driving to Catskills is a long 11 hour day and 710 miles from north east Indiana is no issue. Moab is 23 hours and 1500 miles away, Yosemite is 35 hours and 2,300 miles (may be rent a car). Or if we want off road we will take the F150. Current research shows airfare here in the states is not as much as we have seen before. Maybe we will head east in the spring. I need to figure out costs and the route. Maybe I can schedule Watkins Glenn during a race week end. I miss the cheap days of the 1960s and the 1970's
When is the best time to visit PA, NY, NC,SC and New England?
Yes. The rainforests in Olympic National Park.

PA is good in spring when the rainy season produces the best waterfalls. NY and the rest of New England in the fall, around the first week in October to mid-October. Don't discount West Virginia. The best fall color I've ever seen was in the Adirondack mountains of NY and the second best has been in WV.
