West Richland
This fast-growing, peaceful city of more than 17,000 regularly ranks as a top family-friendly destination statewide. It stretches 7,000 acres along the Yakima River, and was formed in 1955 by the merger of two small agricultural towns.
The City of West Richland is unique in that it contains over 7,000 acres of agricultural land within the city limits, including irrigated pastures, orchards, grapes, potatoes, and other field crops. During harvest times, produce from the local farms provides visitors a variety of exceptional fresh foods.
The wine industry in the West Richland region of the Yakima Valley has grown rapidly over the last 20 years. The Red Mountain American Viticultural Area (AVA), the most renowned wine growing area in Washington State and one of the most coveted wine growing areas in the country, is located on the city’s western boundary. The Red Mountain AVA provides exquisite wine tasting rooms, dining and hiking experiences for visitors.
