Things To Do
Walking Blackbird Island: Your Guide to a "Not-So-Tough Adventure"
While you're in town, why not take a nice, easy walk around Blackbird Island Waterfront Park? It's a lovely stroll, perfect for anyone who wants to enjoy nature without breaking a sweat or questioning life choices halfway through. What to expect: Gorgeous views that make it look like you’re a seasoned outdoorsman, when in reality, it’s just a scenic, flat path. A leisurely walk that’s short enough to not leave you gasping for breath but long enough to feel accomplished (and maybe earn a snack afterward). The perfect spot for an Instagram pic without the need for any fancy gear or trail navigation skills. Bonus Tip: Wear comfortable shoes, not hiking boots—this is more of a walk, not a full-on hike. And if anyone asks, just tell them you “did Blackbird Island today.” They'll be impressed with your nature skills. Enjoy the stroll!
Self-Guided Winery Tour: Drink Like a Local, Wander Like a Pro
A leisurely stroll through downtown Leavenworth, where you can pop in and out of local wineries at your own pace—no tour guide telling you when to sip or stop. Tasting flights that are practically begging to be paired with your most pretentious sommelier voice, even though you’re just here for the fun. Where to Sip: Icicle Ridge Winery: Just a short walk from downtown, where the wines are as vibrant as the views. Plus, it’s one of the best places to pretend you know what "terroir" means. Plain Cellars: If you love the idea of tasting wine from the "Plain" but not the experience, head here for some great varietals and even better vibes. Bavarian Township Winery: A cute spot where the wines taste as good as the adorable decor looks in photos. Plus, if you’re into Riesling, they’ve got you covered. Silvara Vineyards: A little out of town, but worth the trip if you want to feel like a true wine connoisseur while overlooking breathtaking views.
Mountain Biking at Ski Hill: Where Pedals Meet the Peaks
Ready to ride like you’re in an action movie? Mountain biking at Ski Hill in Leavenworth is where you can trade your skis for wheels and get your adrenaline fix. It’s like a roller coaster, but better—because you’re the one in control, and there’s no line! What to expect: Epic Trails: From chill, winding paths for beginners to wild downhill tracks that’ll make your heart race (and your legs question your life choices), Ski Hill’s got it all. Scenic Views: The kind of views that make you almost forget you’re working your legs to the bone. Almost. Slightly Overconfident Vibes: You’ll feel like a pro mountain biker by the time you finish the trail, even if you’ve never ridden anything steeper than your driveway. Pro Tip: If you see a steep hill and start thinking “I can totally handle this,” just remember: gravity works. So, maybe just take it easy on your first lap, and save the death-defying moves for later. Helmets are a good idea. Enjoy the ride! 🚴♀️🌲
Par-Tee in the Mountains
Breathtaking Views: The mountains are your backdrop, so even if you hit a wild shot into the woods, at least you’ve got a view that’ll make you feel better about it. Challenging Courses: Whether you're teeing off at Leavenworth Golf Club, with its scenic layout and tricky doglegs, or checking out Kahler Glen Golf & Ski Resort, where you can combine your love of golf and mountain scenery, you’ll find courses that can either challenge you or make you feel like a pro (depending on your skill level). Casual Vibes: It’s Leavenworth—don’t expect stuffy country club attitudes here. Feel free to rock your favorite golf shirt or your most “I don’t care, I’m here for the beer” attitude. Pro Tip: If you’re really trying to impress the crowd, practice your victory dance before you hit that hole-in-one… even if it’s still just a dream. And don’t forget—there’s always a refreshing beverage waiting for you after your round, so swing, laugh, and enjoy the game! 🏌️♂️🍺
