Get in
Colville surrounds the intersection of State Highway 395 (the north/south main highway through town) and Rte 20 which heads generally east through the hills towards Tiger, going through part of the Colville National Forest. Arriving by private vehicle or bike is probably the easiest and most convenient.
Get around
The main business district of Colville isn't very large - a few blocks long at most, so park your car and walk. Lots of easy parking is available just off Main St.
