Nkawkaw is a town in southern Ghana and the capital of the Kwahu West Municipal District in the Eastern Region, with a settlement population of 61,785 in the 2013 figures cited by its English Wikipedia article. It stands on the road and former railway between Accra and Kumasi, roughly halfway between the two cities, and is also linked by road to Koforidua and Konongo. The town lies at the foot of the Kwahu Mountains and is described as the gateway for the ascent to them, although it is not historically counted as a Kwahu town because it is not on top of the mountain range. It is the home of the football club Okwawu United, which plays at Nkawkaw Park, and of Holy Family Hospital.
