    It's no secret that Seattleites and tourists in the Pacific Northwest love to travel to Leavenworth, Washington. There are many things to appreciate about it, and even more reasons to go there. Leavenworth, Washington, was formerly a struggling timber community. The community realized it needed to engage a public relations firm before it became a ghost town when jobs departed, and the economy tanked. As a group, they put in the effort to give most of the buildings the stereotypical Bavarian facades, inject a lot of personalities, alter many business practices, and ultimately create a new tourist attraction. Leavenworth is now a popular tourist spot with its own culture and activities as well as a strong ambiance reminiscent of Bavaria.

    Also on the list of best things to do in Leavenworth, Washington, is to get a taste of Leavenworth's thriving microbrewery scene. It would be remiss of any tourist visiting Washington State not to sample some of the state's many great beers in their original brewing places in Leavenworth. Beer lovers will appreciate the variety available at Bushell & Bee Taproom, a bar named after its hive logo and located in Portland, Oregon. Beer and cider at Bushell & Bee are delicious because they are made using apples from Washington state's best orchards. There's a real beer to drink there, and it's high-quality stuff with a superb reputation. People who appreciate a fine beer should make a point of traveling to Leavenworth

    #1 Hiking trails nearby
    #2 Kayaking! Choice of big lake or river
    #3 Tubing on the river
    #4 There's a very cute gaming store (D&D, miniatures, board games, a lot of manga, comic books). It has an area with tables for gaming. Very cozy when it's cold outside. Nice change of pace. There are board games for kids, too.
    #5 There are many hot tubs. In hotels and AirBnBs.
    #6 Bike trails. There is a bicycle shop. Even has electric bicycles.

      Can say that the weather was chilly but manageable with a little snow.. not sure what it will do over the next few days but the roads and walkways were manageable. Also we stopped at Wenatchee and honestly had better weather and a better time at their little public market!

      We have stayed at The Bavarian Lodge! It's directly across the street from the "town square" on Front St and is in the heart of it all. They also have a wonderful complimentary breakfast! Have a great time!
