Washington land for sale

Washington land overview

From volcanoes, rain forests, and snow-capped mountain peaks to sparkling coastline, wildflower fields, and river valleys, Washington is the essence of the Pacific Northwest and packed full of beautiful landscapes. Forests cover about half the state's land area and include a large number of Douglas fir and pine, the main reason for its nickname of the Evergreen State. The towering Cascade Mountains run north to south, bisecting the state. Here you'll find well-known volcanoes such as Mount Rainier and Mount St. Helens and many of the country's glaciers. To the east, you'll see canyons, deserts, and scablands, the Blue Mountains, and the Palouse Hills. This area features a lot of productive farmland and ranches. Western Washington is home to the Olympic Mountains, dense forest acreage, and the only temperate rainforests in the continental U.S. Don't forget about the pristine beachfront property on the state's Pacific coastline and the numerous islands, fjords, and bays.
