Welcome to Upstate New York’s Mohawk Valley!
We love this vibrant historic region nestled between the Catskills and Adirondacks
Upstate New York’s Mohawk Valley is located along the Mohawk River in the ancestral lands of the Kanienʼkehá:ka’ (Mohawk) and Oneida. We offer our deepest respect to Hodinöhsö:ni’ ancestors. Explore our nation’s history, enjoy the outdoors along the Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor, participate in fun events, and enjoy so much more in the region.
Spanning Fulton, Herkimer, Montgomery, Oneida, Otsego and Schoharie counties, New York’s Mohawk Valley is great place to live, work and play.
