Leavenworth Fall Foliage

Looking for a special place for those weekend getaway, take Highway 2 from Seattle to enjoy the abundant fall foliage along Tumwater Canyon to Leavenworth and beyond.  The trees in yellow, orange and red show off their fall splendor in Lake Wenatchee just north of the village. From I-90 east, head toward Cle Elum and onto Highway 97 and over Blewett Pass from a spectacular view of the fall leaves.  Jesse Tam, a year round city with summer time fun to Holiday lights in December.

About two hours east of Seattle lays the small Bavarian village of Leavenworth filled with mountain splendor and Northwest recreation. This small town is jam packed with fun all year round, from festivals to great beer, food and plenty of other attractions but really shines in the fall with foliage.  There are plenty of activities for the family from hiking, spa, shopping, variety of food, mini golf, movies and arcades.

Leavenworth can be enjoyed in just a day, most visitors will want to extend their stay through a weekend or longer. There is an array of lodging selections with most hotels being Bavarian-themed.  It is known for beer but it is also a great place for wine lovers with many nearby wineries and wine tasting rooms.  Bavarian Bistro and Bar on Front Street is where you can enjoy classic German cuisine or the for a coffee and a freshly baked gingerbread cookie at the Gingerbread Factory.   https://jessewa28.wordpress.com/
