This clue might be a double definition.

'season' is the first definition.
(alternative name for autumn)

'trip in america?' is the second definition.

'for a' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for fall that I've seen before include "A season in Vermont?" , "Tumble, drop" , "Autumn; plummet" , "What Americans call autumn" , "A season in the US" .)
