The Kewash Nature Trail is a 14 mile former railroad right of way that connects the towns of Washington and Keota. It traverses through a variety of landscapes from rich woodland areas to brilliant native prairie openings which offer a scenic view of the surrounding rolling countryside. Wildlife and wildflowers are abundant along this natural corridor.

With funding and planning help from ECICOG, Washington County was able to connect parts of this trail, bringing communities in the county together and providing a high-quality recreation trail.
