Downtown Wenatchee
As Chelan County's largest city, Wenatchee serves as the business hub and County Seat. Charming downtown streets share the shopping spotlight with a recent surge of retail outlets and expanding malls. Revitalized districts, hi-tech industries and urban sports complement the economic deference paid to Wenatchee's agricultural heritage and community history. Wenatchee lies nestled in an orchard-rich bowl, surrounded by the dry, rolling foothills that shield the Valley from harsh weather. Water is the lifeblood of the region and Wenatchee hosts the confluence of the Wenatchee and Columbia Rivers, providing the water necessary for irrigation of crops, and in recent years, for a growing number of recreational activities.
