Welcome to Norfolk, Connecticut, where the arts and nature meet. Our small, unspoiled New England town, surrounded by the beautiful northwestern Connecticut hills and forests, offers you a wonderful variety of things to do.
If outdoor adventure is your love, there are miles of trails to explore, birds to add to your life list and fish just waiting to be caught. If our flourishing arts community is your fancy, you can hear world-class musicians play at two different venues or take in one more shows of work by area artists.
On some summer Saturdays, you can attend a free concert presented by students of the Yale Summer School of Music, then head for a farm stand for fresh local foods.
As a change of pace, you can stay in one of our fine bed and breakfasts or eat at one of our lively restaurants. History buffs will enjoy taking a self-guided tour and browsing the exhibits at our historical society’s museum.
Come to meet people and socialize or enjoy the exquisite quiet in solitude. Come by yourself or bring your family. Whatever your pleasure, friendly Norfolk will welcome you.
Less than 2.5 hours from both New York and Boston, Norfolk is conveniently connected to nearby small villages, to Hartford on the Connecticut River, to thriving river towns on the banks of the Hudson or to other cultural attractions that include Tanglewood and Jacobs Pillow. Bradley International Airport is just 34 miles away. Yet with all its connections and cultural delights, Norfolk still embodies the essence of relaxed country contentedness.
