The countryside evokes classic New England charm with its meandering stone walls, quaint antiques shops, historic inns, winding back roads, verdant wineries and fertile farmland.
Outdoor enthusiasts enjoy a plethora of recreational options, from hiking the Appalachian Trail to fly fishing on the Housatonic or water-skiing, boating or sailing on one of the county’s many pristine lakes. Residents and visitors enjoy annual events and festivities, including old-time country fairs, arts and crafts festivals, the Litchfield Jazz Festival, historic house tours, community theater, top-notch music venues and so much more.
