Full-Day Excursion to Leavenworth – the Bavarian Experience
See Snoqualmie Falls, one of the most famous attractions in Washington State with a 1.5 million annual number of visitors. Then visit Leavenworth, a city 2.5 hours north of Seattle renowned for its German food and beer and its amazing fall foliage.
Welcome to Leavenworth, an immersive Bavarian experience in everything. In reality, it’s so German that the whole city center is modeled on a village in Bavaria. Your tour involves, you guessed, a genuine dinner created with trotters from Pig! If you join the September or October tour, you’ll see the spectacular fall colors of Leavenworth as well.
Explore the German village 2.5 hours northwest of Seattle, which is the most popular town in this area and where celebrations take place constantly. In the fall, you’ll be able to see beautiful maple leaves. Leavenworth was the name given to the townsite across the Wenatchee River from Icicle in the year that rail construction got underway.
Charles Leavenworth, president of the Okanogan Investment Company, purchased the land in the current downtown and laid out the streets in parallel with the railroad tracks. Construction of the railroad was completed in 1893.
When Lafayette and Chancery Lamb arrived from Iowa in 1903 to build Washington State’s second-largest sawmill, the town was blanketed in white snow and decked out for the holidays. It’s a wonderful place to visit any time of year. Try on traditional German clothing or shop for European souvenirs and German food and beer.
