Plan Your Tri-Cities Golf Trip in 60 Seconds

Sunny desert golf and big-time wine where the rivers meet

The Tri-Cities — Kennewick, Richland, and Pasco — sit at the confluence of three rivers in Washington's sunniest, driest corner, surrounded by the Columbia Valley's biggest wine country. Golf is cheap and plays year-round, the wineries rival Walla Walla's, and the riverfront makes for easy boat-and-beer rest days.
