OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES

Harrington is in the middle of many of the regions great outdoor recreation areas

Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area is a U.S. national recreation area that encompasses the 130-mile (210 km) long Franklin D. Roosevelt Lake between Grand Coulee Dam and Northport, Washington, in eastern Washington state. The Grand Coulee Dam was built on the Columbia River in 1941 as part of the Columbia River Basin project. Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area is a unit of the National Park Service and provides opportunities for fishing, swimming, canoeing, boating, hunting, camping, and visiting historic Fort Spokane and St. Paul’s Mission. Crescent Bay Lake in Grant County just southwest of Lake Roosevelt also falls under the jurisdiction of the National Recreation Area. (Wikipedia)

Grand Coulee Dam is a concrete gravity dam on the Columbia River in the U.S. state of Washington, built to produce hydroelectric power and provide irrigation water. Constructed between 1933 and 1942, Grand Coulee originally had two powerhouses. The third powerhouse (“Nat”), completed in 1974 to increase energy production, makes Grand Coulee the largest power station in the United States by nameplate-capacity at 6,809 MW. (Wikipedia)

The area around Harrington has been known to have some good hunting. Many species thrive in our area. To help hunters prepare for a successful hunting season, wildlife biologists for the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) consulted their local sources and contributed their personal observations about hunting prospects throughout the state.

Lincoln County, located a short trip west of Spokane in Eastern Washington, is known more for growing wheat than fish, but there are some great fishing lakes here you don’t want to overlook. The big, rural county has one of the lowest population densities in Washington, with a little over 10,000 people, some of whom live in communities such as Davenport, Harrington and Sprague. If you take a break from fishing, things to see include the Inland NW Rail Museum, Fort Spokane, Porcupine Bay and Lake Roosevelt Recreation Area, as well as the historic ghost towns of Fishtrap and Govan. (Best Fishing)

To you love to spend outdoors looking at the various species of bird? Trying to take the next great snapshot of some elusive species? Well there is plenty for you in Lincoln County. Here’s one website to get you started in your birdwatching.

You should definitely check out our awesome little Harrington Camping and RV park first, but if they are full or you’d prefer to rough it a bit more, there are lots of places to camp in Lincoln County. Most of these are in close vicinity to some great hiking spots.
