Leavenworth National Fish Hatchery does more than raise fish! With over 170 acres of river-side property and 5 miles of trails, the hatchery grounds are a hotspot for a wide variety of birds. Swallows swoop above ponds, ducks paddle in the river, warblers hide in hawthorn and dogwood thickets and raptors soar above. We may even spot the elusive calliope humming bird or white-headed woodpecker. Join us for an easy stroll along mostly paved and fairly flat trails that wander through a patchwork of Eastern Cascade ecosystems, from ponderosa pine and brush steppe to lush riparian riparian
