Eden Valley Guest Ranch offers guests a diverse population of wildflowers in their native environment in the Okanogan Highlands of north central Washington. Due to elevation and climate, our wildflower show generally begins in late April and continues into late July.
Guests may hike or trail ride to see beautiful displays. We offer narrated tours at Eden Valley either by horse or on foot. A short drive to the Lost Lake, Beth Lake, Beaver Lake or Bonaparte area with short hikes will show wildflowers blooming a little later and provide a fun adventure for any group.
Naturally, average temperatures, elevation and rainfall impact the wildflower show greatly each year. For those brand new to wildflower identification, beginning when plants are in the flower stage is easiest and most fun.
