Bring out the bikes and walking/running shoes, and plan for an active stay at Wenatchee Confluence State Park.
This park at the confluence of the Columbia and Wenatchee rivers is a popular destination for campers, swimmers, boaters, jet skiers and bicyclists.
The mixed-use Apple Capital Loop Trail runs through Wenatchee Confluence and several riverfront parks, spanning two bridges to form a 10-mile loop along the Columbia River. Hardcore cyclists can ride it farther, turning onto the paved Rocky Reach trail and heading 5.5 miles up to Lincoln Rock State Park. A shorter, 2.2-mile extension also is available, and a quick ride into downtown Wenatchee holds promise of coffee, shopping and restaurants.
Though Wenatchee Confluence caters to cycling and water sports fans, the park also offers basketball, volleyball and tennis courts, as well as baseball fields for those who love sports. Just want to read in your camp chair? You can't go wrong at Wenatchee Confluence.
