The beauty and bounty of Herkimer County's natural
resources have been central to its unique place in American history. Herkimer
County and the Mohawk Valley are steeped in history echoing back to the early
French, English and Palatine German settlers. The Erie Canal, the State's oldest
man-made trade route, winds through the valley and offers numerous locks worth
visiting. Many towns and valleys have historical societies and buildings,
including the Herkimer County Historical Society in Herkimer, preserving the
past.

This community is itself a medley of smaller,
individual communities with the shared mission of maintaining a high quality of
life for its citizens and visitors. Diamond hunting is a great family activity
in Herkimer County. Herkimer County is known for producing extremely clear
quartz crystals, shipped all over as Herkimer diamonds. World famous "Herkimer
diamonds" are beautifully doubly terminated quartz crystals already faceted by
nature.
Agriculture forms the leading pursuit. The hilly character of the surface
particularly adapts this county to pasturage; and dairying has long been the
leading branch of industry. At Little Falls, and a few other localities, considerable manufacturing takes place.
Regional activities include boating,
swimming, water skiing, fishing, canoeing, hiking, camping, biking, golfing,
white water rafting and snow sports. The Fulton Chain of Lakes has over 12 miles
of continuous lake travel. Canoeing, kayaking and rafting are also part of the
many water sports. Lakes, streams and rivers abound with native fish. West
Canada Creek is considered to be one of the best trout fishing streams in the
state. Brook and lake trout, bullheads,
whitefish, large and small bass, perch and sunfish are plentiful. Deer, bear,
rabbit, fox, beaver, wild turkey, pheasant and grouse provide hunters a
challenge. There are 40+ area golf courses, more than 6 driving ranges and
around 15 miniature golf courses.
Nearby attractions include Remington Arms Gun Museum, Salisbury Covered Bridge,
Erie Canal Locks 17 and 18 and Hinckley Reservoir. Within an hour are Turning
Stone Casino, Cooperstown Baseball Hall of Fame, Boxing Hall of Fame, FX Matt
Brewery, Fort Stanwix, Erie Canal Village, Adirondack Scenic Railroad, NY State
Fairgrounds, Vernon Downs and more. The Enchanted Forest/Water Safari is New York's largest water theme park with numerous water rides, petting zoo, circus shows and more.
