Washington Wine Country

Escape, Relax and Enrich in the Yakima Valley

Escape to the Yakima Valley in Central Washington State to find one of the world’s top agricultural growing regions boasting award-winning wine and large varieties of fresh produce.

Enjoy the relaxing pace of the countryside and the charm of revitalized downtowns. Explore the vineyards with a winemaker, then laugh and enjoy a long leisurely lunch.

Access to the Yakima Valley couldn't be easier with a quick drive from the Seattle, Portland, OR and Spokane metropolitan areas.

Events abound in Yakima Valley Wine Country! Join the festivities around Yakima Valley cherry harvest in early summer, then the warm summer nights and many events during 4th of July weekend! Later in the summer, pick your own apples, peaches, plums, nectarines and more at our many u-pick farms. Enjoy the Yakima Valley's warmth and cloudless days with concerts and galas like A Case of the Blues and All That Jazz or soar to great heights at the Great Prosser Balloon Rally. And it's always fun to hoist a beer with friends in wine country at the Fresh Hop Ale Festival in newly revitalized Downtown Yakima.
