The Bygone Byways Interpretive Trail is located about 30 miles from Leavenworth on U.S. Highway 2, near mile marker 69. The parking area is relatively small, but marked by this sign.
Much of the Bygone Byways Interpretive Trail overlooks Nason Creek with several small waterfalls and nooks and crannies. The water draws wildlife and keeps the area lush and green, even in mid-summer.
A variety of flowers including fireweed can be found at the trailhead, which also features a variety of pine, cedar and other trees.
Water pools dot Nason Creek along its path beside the trailway. Hikers may want to bring insect repellent to avoid run-ins with mosquitos.
LEAVENWORTH – Travel about 30 miles northwest of Leavenworth on U.S. 2, and you’ll find the Bygone Byways Interpretive Trailhead.
