New Hartford
New Hartford, CT
New Hartford is a small, close-knit community bordered by Torrington to the west, Barkhamsted to the north, Canton to the east, and Burlington and Harwinton to the south. The Farmington River traverses the historic downtown area, providing scenic beauty to all who frequent the quaint shops and businesses located there. Fishermen can be seen casting their lines in one of Connecticut's most well known catch-and-release areas. The summer brings kids of all ages to this river to experience the thrill of riding the rapids on a tube or in a kayak, available for rent from local vendors. Residents and visitors flock to local antique shops while enjoying the spectacular views of the rolling hills surrounding the town. Ski enthusiasts are drawn to Ski Sundown with a great range of slopes from beginner to advanced. More info...
