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.

Getting There

To reach the west end of the Fish Creek trail, hikers will need to catch the Lady of The Lake ferry from either the city of Chelan or the Field's Point stop. When you get tickets tell the ferry staff you need a drop at Moore Point. Be sure to have reservations for the boat, as it can fill quickly in the summer months.
