The Mohawk Valley is located between the Adirondack Plateau to the north and the Catskills Mountains to the south. This broad valley features gentle terrain and fertile soils evidenced by the predominately agrarian land cover. Among the fields and woodlots, hamlets and small towns dot the landscape, interspersed with rural residences. Historically, this region has served as an important pathway from the eastern seaboard to the interior of Central New York and beyond. Dairy production and other agriculture have historically been important industries in this region.
Hoyer Hill is located equidistant from Albany and Syracuse in southern Herkimer County in the hamlet of Jordanville, town of Warren, New York.
