 The village has a distinctive European appeal with its authentic Bavarian architecture and colorful festivals. Shopping, live theater, dining and all forms of the arts play a major role in entertaining millions of visitors each year who leave smitten by this charming city.
Icicle Junction Activities Center & Cinema offers everyday fun for kids of all ages. The entire family can participate in a round of miniature golf on the 18-hole course or take a turn on the court for a round of basketball, badminton, or tennis. Guests are sure to find an activity they love with movies, pool, and an extensive arcade on premise.
For an intoxicating afternoon surrounded by open valleys and peaceful orchards, visitors may relax at several local wineries, tasting vibrant German style wines, apple wines and premier Washington boutique wines. Weary travelers may unwind in a Day Spa, indulging in couple treatments, steam saunas, acupuncture, massages and so much more.
For Art and Theatre enthusiasts, the Leavenworth Summer Theatre performs fantastic musical theatre live, outdoors, under the stars. Past performances included “Sound of Music” and “Kiss Me, Kate.” Icicle Creek Music Center presents the annual Chamber Music Festival during July weekends as well as international and local classical, jazz, and contemporary performers year-round. The Cashmere Community Coffee House hosts monthly, live Bluegrass music September through May at the Cashmere Riverside Center, and in the summer and fall months, Village Art in the Park exhibits renowned artisan’s work in the city park Thursdays through Sundays.
Nestled up against the Alpine Lakes Wilderness and Lake Wenatchee, Leavenworth is an ideal destination for outdoor adventure all year round. From playing 18 holes of golf near waterfalls and mountain goats; to tubing down rivers with your family and dog; to scenic horseback trail rides; or old fashioned sleigh rides snuggled under blankets with steaming cups of cocoa, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and more; visitors will have a tough time deciding what to do next in this idyllic city at the foothills of Alpine wonders. |
