Presentazione generale
Yakima Valley
Vergers, vineyards and dry hills east of the Cascades.
The discovery of Yakima Valley is centred around Yakima Valley Museum, Cowiche Canyon and Yakima Area Arboretum. The stay thus alternates between the countryside and the riverscapes, which gives a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.

For a stay of 2 to 5 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: variable influx depending on the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Luoghi imperdibili
Una selezione per iniziare a sognare e organizzare il soggiorno — non un elenco esaustivo di tutto ciò che c’è da vedere.
Culture and heritage
Yakima Valley Museum
The Yakima Valley Museum gathers what the valley produces, cultivates and tells: showcases about Aboriginal peoples, pioneer objects, wagons, ancient signs and history of fruit tree growing. It is a useful stop before heading to orchards, vineyards or canyons, as it puts Yakima's landscapes back into a very material history.
Nature and panorama
Cowiche Canyon
Cowiche Canyon The trails follow the old canyon bottom, cross footbridges and open views of the hills of the Piedmont; in spring, the wildflowers soften this mineral decor. The landscape is very close to the old canyon, and it is also very easy to see the hills of the Piedmont.
Place indismissible
Yakima Area Arboretum
The Yakima Area Arboretum borders the Yakima River with shaded aisles, trial gardens and tree collections adapted to the dry climate of the valley. The place is suitable for a quiet walk between two more agricultural or wine visits, especially when foliage changes or the massifs are in bloom.
Place indismissible
Toppenish Murals
In Toppenish, the walls tell the West by painted scenes: trains, rodeos, shops, yakama life and episodes of the valley. The walk holds less of the museum than a street-image hunt, with frescoes visible on the facades, gables and buildings of the centre.
