Leavenworth National Fish Hatchery 

(LNFH) was built in 1940, and was the 

largest sh hatchery in the world at that 

time. Along with Entiat and Winthrop 

national sh hatcheries, LNFH mitigates 

the impact of the Grand Coulee Dam

on salmon and steelhead. LNFH 

currently raises 1.2 million spring 

Chinook salmon every year for release, 

supporting tribal, sport, and commercial 

sheries. The hatchery is a National 

Historic Landmark. Located just two 

miles from main street Leavenworth, 

Washington’s popular “Bavarian village,” 

the hatchery serves as a de facto 

community park. An estimated 100,000 

visitors each year enjoy the 170-acre site, 

with over ve miles of wooded trails, an 

award-winning pollinator garden, and a 

visitor center open year-round. The 

Wenatchee River Salmon Festival has 

been hosted here in September

since 1990.
