Bickleton, WA

Bickleton is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in Klickitat County, Washington, United States. The 2020 census counted 92 residents. Bickleton was first settled by Charles N. Bickle and established in 1879. That mix gives Bickleton a clear local shape within Washington, with older layers still visible in current places. The local scoop is a place whose streets, landmarks, and institutions keep its earlier story close to the present. The festival also features a 1905 Herschell-Spillman carousel, which the town purchased from Oaks Amusement Park in Portland, Oregon, in 1928. Bickleton is in northeastern Klickitat County, south of the Horse Heaven Hills and the Yakama Indian Reservation. Bickleton is 66 miles west of Kennewick and 22 miles north of the Columbia River at Roosevelt.
