Chamna Natural Preserve, located in Richland, WA, spans 276 acres and features over 11 miles of trails meandering through diverse habitats such as shrub-steppe, riparian, and wetlands. Once used for grazing and farming, remnants of past crops and irrigation systems can still be seen, while wildlife like black-tailed jackrabbits, river otters, and deer can be spotted by visitors year-round.

Popular among equestrians, cyclists, hikers, and bird-watchers, Chamna offers a picturesque setting for outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy activities like cross-country skiing and snowshoeing during the winter months. Maintained by Tapteal Greenway and other organizations, the preserve encourages trail users to practice proper etiquette and respect the natural environment for the benefit of all visitors and wildlife.
