Asotin, WA,
County Seat

In October 1883, Asotin County was carved from Garfield County and the city of Asotin was named the county seat. Since that time, Asotin County has become the recreation capital of southeastern Washington. The cities of Asotin and Clarkston are nestled in the valley of the confluence of the Snake and Clearwater Rivers and have many tourism and business opportunities available.

Asotin County experiences extraordinary warm weather year round and consequently fishermen and outdoorsmen alike flock to this pristine area. Visitors to the area can experience North America's deepest river gorge, can enjoy a sunny day on the golf course, take a cruise line tour of the area and view ancient Indian petroglyphs and other historical sites along the way.

Also located within Asotin County is the Port of Clarkston. The port operates one of the largest cranes on the Columbia/Snake River system and manages a 120-acre waterfront site, with a number of diverse business tenants. As you can see Asotin County is a great place to live, work or visit!
