Welcome to Colville

Mother Nature must have intended for Colville, Washington someday to be North America's premier recreation destination as she certainly blessed this area with everything visitors and residents need to exercise their sense of adventure while nourishing their spirits.

From the tranquil of the Colville National Forest to the grandeur of the Salmo-Priest Wilderness, Colville is positioned as a hot spot of the west. Photographers enjoy the opportunity to observe - and capture for memories - grizzly bears, woodland caribou, gray wolves, deer, elk, black bears, cougar, bobcat, wolverine, badger, lynx, bighorn sheep and moose that rule this rugged territory. Outdoorsmen appreciate the naturally stocked lakes, while athletes can't resist our three regional ski areas, snowmobiling opportunities and mountain hiking trails. All families drink in the sense of relaxation our city hospitality emphasizes.

There's never a bad time to visit Colville, so dive in and enjoy!
