About

Spokane is Washington's second-largest city, located 20 miles west of the Idaho state line. It offers an ideal mix of city attractions and outdoor adventure, enjoyed under frequent sunny skies. Summers are typically hot and dry and popular for hiking, fishing and golfing, while winters bring easy access to skiing, snowboarding and other snow sports. Less than an hour from Downtown, Mt. Spokane features numerous ski runs and a vast terrain park. You’ll also find many parks throughout the city, including Riverfront Park, with multiple vantage points for viewing Spokane Falls and Spokane River. It also hosts quite a few attractions, including public art, a carousel and the Numerica SkyRide that takes you over the magnificent cascades. The river runs right through Downtown Spokane, home to trendy pubs and eateries, indie boutiques, a theater and beautifully restored historic buildings.
