Elevations in the county range between 600 feet near the Columbia River and over 4,000 feet on Badger Mountain.

The Grand Coulee Dam produces more hydroelectric power than any other dam in the United States. The city of Bridgeport lies about 1.5 miles downstream from Chief Joseph Dam, which is a popular recreational tourism destination. U.S. Route 2 and U.S. Route 97 are primary corridors in the county. East Wenatchee, along the banks of the Columbia River, is served by Amtrak's Empire Builder route.
