Wenatchee, WA

united states

Wenatchee sits in Washington's apple country where US Highway 2 crosses the Columbia River. Drive east from Seattle over Stevens Pass (150 miles) or take Highway 97 north from Yakima. The semi-arid climate means hot summers perfect for orchards and mild winters with little snow. EV charging is available downtown and more stations are coming. The city hosts the massive Apple Blossom Festival each spring with an 11-mile parade route.
