It's official! Summer is just around the corner, and we have an epic summertime adventure for you. We all know the Bavarian town of Leavenworth is a magical wonderland during the winter. But did you know that the first alpine coaster in Washington is coming to Leavenworth this summer? Pack up the kids and load up the car. It's time for an exciting adventure like no other!

Leavenworth Adventure Park opens June 1, 2023, and we couldn't be more excited.

Conveniently located at the entrance of Tumwater Canyon, the park is a short walk from downtown Leavenworth. The park features four main attractions and an 8,500-square-foot guest center with food, merchandise, and a party space.

Buckle up and test your skills on the Alpine Ascent Climbing Wall.

Designed specifically for Leavenworth Adventure Park, the climbing wall offers routes for beginning, intermediate, and advanced climbers. Alpine Ascent towers 27 feet in the air and is attached to the Guest Services Building.

While the climbing wall takes you on a calculated journey to the top, the Bavarian Bounce Trampoline allows you to soar twenty feet into the air with abandon.

Jumpers are attached to two safety harnesses and bungees are adjusted by weight for the ultimate bouncing experience. All safety standards are followed and all attractions are thoroughly inspected and licensed by the State of Washington.

If you prefer keeping your feet solidly on the ground, check out the Gems of The Enchantments Mining Sluice.

Go back in time to the days when miners were drawn to the area in pursuit of gold. Guests of all ages will enjoy this fun and educational activity as they sort through a bag of rough in search of gemstones and treasure. Bags of rough can be purchased at Guest Services.

Of course, the main attraction is the Tumwater Twister Alpine Coaster.

Enjoy spectacular views of Tumwater Canyon, Icicle Ridge, the Wenatchee River, and the Bavarian town of Leavenworth as you twist and glide over the tracks.

Tumwater Twister is designed to give guests the ride of a lifetime.

Whether you prefer a slow and scenic ride or an exhilarating 27-mile-per-hour adrenaline rush, you're in control. Cars are equipped with side brakes for a truly custom experience.

Featuring 2,700 feet of track, a vertical drop of 234 feet, and three 360-degree spirals, you are guaranteed a thrilling ride.

Guest safety is essential at Leavenworth Adventure Park. Tumwater Twister Alpine Coaster is equipped with anti-derailment systems, tamper-proof locking seatbelts, and intelligent distance controls. All guests must sign a waiver and meet height requirements in order to ride.
