Where We Are

The Yakama Reservation lies along the eastern slopes of the Cascade Mountain Range and the Yakima River in south-central Washington. There are fourteen tribes and bands that make up the Yakama Nation. More than 10,500 people are enrolled in the Yakama confederation of tribes, and there are more than 14,000 people living on or close to the 1.2 million acre reservation. The Yakama language is called Ichishkiin, and consists of several different dialects that are spoken by the 14 tribes as well as other tribes in the Northwest such as the Warm Springs people in Oregon and the Nez Perce in Idaho.

The Yakama Reservation is located 185 miles southeast of Seattle, WA; 140 miles northeast of Portland, OR; and 202 miles southwest of Spokane, WA.
