Katy Trail
Towns Along the Way
The Katy passes through mostly rural landscape with very small villages or crossroad settlements. We have selected these interesting towns for overnights stays. Most accommodations are in comfortable bed and breakfast or small inns.
- Clinton, at the western end of the Katy Trail
- Sedalia, site of the Missouri State Fair and early home of Scott Joplin’s Ragtime
