Tips

If you’d like to extend your stay, consider adding an extra day to explore the nearby Columbia River Gorge or a leisurely day at the Grand Coulee Dam. Conversely, you can shorten the itinerary by combining Day 4’s hiking with the bike path in the afternoon and skipping the optional Day 5 Stehekin excursion, which will still give you a wonderful taste of Chelan’s natural beauty while reducing overall costs.
