Faux Bavarian town created by the Chamber of Commerce rocks your world as a tourist destination. Enjoy the illusion. Levenworth doesn't have Bavarian roots in early settlement. Total bullshit.

I wouldn’t be traveling to Leavenworth for the Bavarian stuff - real Bavaria is closer to me. But I will be touring the Pacific Northwest next summer and was still planning to spend a few days here, as Leavenworth seems useful as a starting point for some Cascades exploration. Am I right or wrong then? Fully appreciate that there will be better spots in the Cascades, but also need something relatively central as we don’t want to spend whole days traveling to our base for a few days only. Thanks!

Cle Elum and Winthrop are much nicer townscapes and vibs. for a few days stay in my book. Both well located for high country access and less expensive and touristy than Leavenworth. Personal preference. Cashmere is also well located for the Wenatchee/Icicle River drainages.
