Explore Our Region

Moscow, Idaho

The nice part about visiting the Palouse is being able to experience not only one college town but two! Once you’ve taken in all that WSU Pullman and the City of Pullman have to offer, take a quick 11-mile (20 minute) drive to explore Moscow, Idaho, and the University of Idaho. Pullman and Moscow are a complementary pair filled with plenty of adventure — what one city lacks, the other has, and vice versa! Visit the Moscow Chamber of Commerce or University of Idaho websites for more information. 

The Greater Palouse Region

Nothing compares to the rolling hills of the Palouse — a bold statement that has been backed by visitors from near and far (and admittedly, a little bias)! The region is truly stunning and even just taking a drive along the Palouse Scenic Byway is a worthy add to any campus visit, but there are also many wonderful communities nestled into the hills that are fun stops filled with local bakeries, wineries, clothing boutiques and novelty shopping, outdoor and superb vantages of said rolling hills. Want to learn more? Give us a call or send an email and we’ll get you pointed in the right direction!
