Full description
Go on a journey to the east side of the Cascade Mountains from Seattle, and take advantage of the rainshadow effect to keep you drier (or snowier!). See Leavenworth and explore the holiday shops and decor before heading back to Seattle.

First, travel to the Snoqualmie Pass where you will stop to enjoy some warm drinks and a picturesque hike or snowshoe walk along a level forested trail to stretch the legs and enjoy the views.

The trail for the day will be determined by the guide based upon snow level and conditions. Never snowshoed before? Your guide will provide an introductory lesson and helpful tips to get you started on the right foot.

Next, tuck back into your tour vehicle en route to the Bavarian town of Leavenworth, tucked among the Cascade Mountains and blanketed in the winter spirit. Once you arrive, take in the hundreds of thousands of holiday lights strung about, eternal Christmas stores, and snow frosted trees.

Enjoy a couple hours to wander the town at your leisure. Be sure to pack your wallet, and indulge in a local lunch while you explore. You can also opt to wander around Blackbird Island and through the festive streets of downtown.

Finally, meet back up with your guide at the designated time and begin the journey back across the beautiful Cascades and into Seattle, just in time to find dinner on your own.
