Walking is the best way to see anything within Leavenworth
Avoid the parking hassle by walking if your willing. The views here are excellent and the hassle of parking wont be an issue. However, if you intend on driving I would recommend Leavenworth Shuttle and Taxi. They service Leavenworth proper and will get you where you need to go promptly.

River Float
Floating the river during the summer is a must do here in town at least once (if not more). It may take a bit of organizing since you will need someone to drop you off and pick you up but it is definitely worth it.
The entrance to the start point of the float is at the fish hatchery public access
Fishing Access Rd, Leavenworth, WA 98826
Where you chose to end your float is somewhat up to you but here are some recommended end points
