Ephrata

Ephrata is the gateway to the Columbia Basin area. The natural springs west of Ephrata have attracted people for thousands of years and the 1917 County Courthouse is still heated by geothermal waters.

Ephrata offers many activities, such as Splash Zone, Basin Summer Sounds, Sage-n-Sun Festival and the Beezley Burn mountain bike race. Other local attractions include Banks Lake, Grand Coulee Dam, the Wild Horse Monument, Dry Falls, Lake Lenore Caves, and local wineries.
