The One Washington Town Everyone Must Visit This Fall
It’s going to be a beautiful autumn here in Washington, and our lively cities and small towns are getting geared up for all the fall festivals and events to come. But if you only have time to visit one spot in the state this season, we highly recommend checking out Winthrop and the Methow Valley. Thankfully the summer’s wildfires didn’t touch the town, and all roads in the area are open once again.

This photo was taken a few days ago, and it's only going to get prettier.

You'll feel like you've stepped straight into the Old West.

The food, beer, and music are all excellent here, so if you're into any of those things, you'll love this place.

Fall festivals are wonderful, but if you're looking for an uncrowded escape where you can enjoy the fall foliage in peace, this is your place.


This is a scene from the 3-mile Cedar Falls Trail, an easy hike for all skill levels.

The Winthrop Twin Lakes Loop is a beautiful drive or hike that covers the best ground.

The roads to Winthrop can get treacherous in winter and sometimes close, so plan your visit before the first snowfall if you can.
Winthrop is definitely amazing in the fall. But if you only have one day to get away, try one of these beautiful destinations in Washington.
