Overview

Edit

Rad snowkiting spot, no obsticles and doesn’t really matter wind direction. Best beginner snowkite spot. Park on the side of the road and kite on either side on Rd 1 in the green wheat feilds. About 3 hours from Seattle.

From Wenatchee, it’s a 30 minute drive and easily enough to find. Stay on highway 2 leaving Wenatche. Right before entering the town of Waterville, take a right on P street and go about a mile in. Take a left and park on Road 1 NW.

It is your responsibility to check whether kitesurfing is allowed at the spot; you might need a 'special permit' or membership from a local kite organization, etc. Local rules can change. Respect others - kiters or not; kite safely and enjoy the wind!
