This quiet village is nestled on the banks on the Snake River just 3 miles south of Clarkston. To my awareness there are no overnight facilities. This is a popular last minute stop before going into Hells Canyon, to stock up on gas, groceries or a beer at one of the local pubs. There are a couple cafes here also. The next facilities are located 31 miles up river at the end of the road. The canyons abound with prehistoric petroglyphs such as at Buffalo Eddy. Old mining remnants and mines are prolific. Asotin has boat launching and gas for water skiers and well as serious steelhead and sturgeon fisherman.

During summer and winter months, colorful paragliders can be seen flying from the Asotin Hill, overlooking the city.  Tandem flights and paraglider instructions available through US AirBorne, as Asotin based business.
