Lake Wenatchee State Park

Unfortunately due to some car issues we didn’t get to spend as much time at the lake as we wanted to. But we did make it up in the late afternoon and I could tell instantly that this would be a wonderful area to have a picnic at. We only visited the beach area but there were plenty of picnic benches both on the beach and in the wooded areas. The view across the lake was majestic and the bathroom facilities were clean and stocked. Bonus points for having a wheelchair mat down to the water making this mobility challenge friendly

This park is a snow park in the winter with groomed cross country skiing trails, sled hills and walking trails. A permit is required for winter use. Your Discover pass will not work. There are many bathrooms, a general store, campsites, a play ground and a huge lake.

Absolutely stunning views! Great place for a stroll outdoors after stopping by Leavenworth. Ample parking space, a boat launch area, warming cabin, campground, playground, and plenty of tables for picnicking.

One of the most beautiful lakes I’ve ever seen. The trails around the park were clearly marked and very scenic. I would love to spend more time here.

Book camp site 10 months out hoping to catch sockeye salmon. Missed it by a week, but had a good time on the lake fishing. Been over 40 years since I slept in a tent, but wasn’t an issue for me at all. Temps in the mid 50’s at night and upper 70’s durning the day. Stayed a week and no rain which my fishing buddies said was rare. Plenty of trails to walk on. Couple of beach areas with paddle board and kayak rentals at the other side of the river.
