No matter where you go in Montgomery County, the river is always there, the backdrop of all activities in the Mohawk Valley, the touchstone to which we always return. When you visit, put the future in perspective by thinking about the past-about the history of this region so rich in people, ideas, and dreams. The past, after all, has made our present what it is, with its rich heritage of cultures, its broad commercial and industrial base, our extraordinary architectural legacy, and our deep attachment to the land.

In the early 19th century, even when leisure travel was a luxury, the Mohawk Valley was a favorite destination. And so it is today. Join us, whether you're near or far. Come visit. To see our America, learn about the past, visit our charming towns, and have the time of your life.
