Aquaduct Falls   (Confirmed)
   Chelan County, Washington

[ Physical Makeup ]  [ Pictures ]  [ Maps ]  [ Update History ]

This is a rather unremarkable pseudo-artificial waterfall immediately east of downtown Leavenworth. The falls are produced by overflow from the irrigation canal above, but seem to flow fairly consistently. There is room to park, but little room on the bridge to view the falls from with cars cruising by at freeway speeds. Best to enjoy this one from the safety of your car as you pass.
