Looking for tubing in Washington? When the heat is on in the Evergreen State, it’s time to head to the nearest and dearest water spot to cool off. While there are many choices for places to cool off in Washington, the 214-mile-long Yakima River is an exceptional choice. And if you want someone else to do all the planning for you, consider taking a floating adventure from Yakima River Tubing in Ellensburg.

The reason why this is such a sought-after tubing spot is because the river itself is pretty calm in this area of the state.
