A local arts center with periodic performances of both local & national artists. Immerse in a classical piece by their youth orchestra while gazing at the mountains from its meadows.
18-hole golf course close to downtown Leavenworth. Hilly but scenic between the mountains and the Wenatchee River. Watch out for occasional passing wildlife and check out its in-house Wild Huckleberry restaurant.
If you are more of an adrenaline junkie, conquer the Classes III and IV rapids of the Wenatchee by a raft boat! Specific package includes BBQ at their Cashmere private landing. The lighter stuff includes tubing (with a family), paddleboard, and kayaking.
Join a magnificent interactive theater performance under the stars. The Sound of Music is their regular and usually sells out (given the fitting scene of the area), along with other rotating shows.
The park features softball, baseball, and soccer fields for those who want to have fun and stay active, even during the winter. It is also connected by bridge to Blackbird Island and Waterfront Park.
This is where you can unwind in nature without going too far from town. Walk the trails, go people-watching as you dip your feet in the Wenatchee River, be on the lookout for eagles and ospreys. For an even quieter setting, cross over the bridge to Blackbird Island.
