   Exploring the cultural significance and history of New Hartford is all well and good for you, but sometimes Fido is just going to want to play and run off some energy.  Luckily, New Hartford has provided a dog park for exactly that purpose! On Route 12, you will find the Sherrill Brook Park.  This park has miles of fully marked hiking trails for you and your dogs to explore, as well as a designated dog run just for our furry friends!  These wide-open expanses of lawn are perfect for playing frisbee with Fido or relaxing and enjoying a picnic while you inhale the fresh mountain air.

   When you are ready to explore outside of New Hartford, there are multiple other cities in the surrounding Oneida County.  Visitors looking to experience the majestic wonders of the Adirondack Mountain's waterfalls can take a ten-minute drive to Utica, where the Tassel Hill State Forest is located. This 2,663-acre state forest, also called the Albert J. Woodford Memorial State Forest, features the highest point in Oneida County, Tassel Hill at 1,945 feet high.  In this park, visitors can fish off of the Chittning Pond fishing pier.  Bring a picnic for you and Fido so you can spend the day here, and make sure you don't miss Frostbite Falls, the gorgeous waterfalls southwest of Tassel Hill.

   In addition to New Hartford's dog park, central New York offers more for Fido just fifteen miles down the road in Rome.  If you are looking for a pawesome place to let your four-legged friends roam free, check out the Rome Bark Park.  Visitors should know ahead of time that, to access the park, you will need to apply for a permit.  Once you are approved, you will be given a key to access the park during the established hours. Bring a leash, as is the rule, and only two dogs per owner are allowed. No more than fifteen dogs total at a time can be on the property.  When you are inside the fenced-in area, your pups are allowed to run free and enjoy the playground!

   An often overlooked park in Oneida County is the Lock 20 Canal State Park, found in Marcy, just eleven miles outside of New Hartford.  This beautiful area is the perfect place to bring Fido for a picnic or just to watch the boats go through the canal locks, which is something most people never get to see. The Lock 20 Canal State Park is always clean and full of amenities like picnic tables, restrooms, and shelters from inclement weather.  When the locks are not in use, you and Fido can access the canal trail on the other side and explore the scenic grounds.
