We hiked. We swam. We even peeked in the bathrooms. All to bring you a state-by-state guide to 36 of the Midwest's greatest natural treasures.

Missouri: Katy Trail State Park

The nation's longest rails-to-trails bike path starts northwest of St. Louis in St. Charles and loosely follows the Missouri River west for 225 miles, through small towns, farmland, prairie and wine country. Ultimately, the 20-year-old trail will link to city and county bike paths to Kansas City, making it possible to pedal across all of Missouri. (800) 334-6946
