Washington Trails AssociationTrails for everyone, forever
We're just as excited as you to get the summer hiking season started. We're psyched our website, app and work for trails help you get outside.
But we're a nonprofit that runs on donations from regular people. If everyone who visited this site this holiday weekend donated $9/month, it would fully fund our work for the next 2 years. Time spent outdoors is priceless, but every donation large or small helps us support those experiences for everyone. Thank you and happy hiking!

Trailhead
WTA Pro Tip: Save a copy of our directions before you leave! App-based driving directions aren't always accurate and data connections may be unreliable as you drive to the trailhead.
To get to Domke Mountain, there are several options, and none involve driving a car. You can take the Lady of the Lake ferry, which leaves from the downtown Chelan area.
If you are equipped with your own boat, you can boat up Lake Chelan, dock at Refrigerator Harbor, and hike from there. Keep in mind that a Federal Dock Site Boat Permit is required from May 1 – October 31 for use of all National Forest and Park Service docks on Lake Chelan.
Permits must be pre-purchased before docking. Purchase a $5 Day Permit or $40 Seasons Pass at the Chelan or Entiat Ranger Districts, or Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest Headquarters Offices; or from one of many Chelan and Manson Area vendors. To order by phone, call the Chelan Ranger District @ 509-682-4900 and pay via credit card during business hours. Permits may also be purchased at Stehekin.
