Template:Infobox WA State Route State Route 27 is a highway in eastern Washington that runs down from Spokane Valley, Washington to U.S. Route 195 about a mile south Pullman, Washington. This highway would sometimes be nicknamed the "Palouse Highway" because of its passing through the Palouse Hills in Southeast Washington.
