Quick Overview
Cashmere has several RV parks and campgrounds in the area, with some offering free or low-cost options for travelers in the Wenatchee Valley of north-central Washington. This small Chelan County city of about 3,300 sits along Highway 2 between Wenatchee and Leavenworth, in a section of the Wenatchee River valley surrounded by fruit orchards and bounded by forested Cascade foothills. RV campgrounds near Cashmere serve visitors exploring the apple and pear country that has defined this valley for over a century, as well as travelers passing through on Highway 2 between the Puget Sound region and eastern Washington. The city is best known as the home of Aplets and Cotlets, the fruit-and-nut confections produced by Liberty Orchards since 1920 that draw visitors to the company's downtown factory and tasting room. The Cashmere Museum and Pioneer Village on Cottage Avenue preserves an excellent collection of Native American artifacts and pioneer-era buildings that document the valley's cultural heritage from ancient to modern times. The Wenatchee River flowing past town provides fishing, kayaking, and rafting opportunities in a scenic mountain-valley setting, and the surrounding orchards fill the valley with blossoms in spring and ripe fruit in late summer through fall. Cashmere's position between Wenatchee's commercial services and Leavenworth's Bavarian-themed tourist village gives RV travelers access to both without the higher costs or crowds found in either community, making it a smart base for exploring this beautiful stretch of the central Cascades.
