town in Litchfield County, Connecticut, United States of America
Norfolk is a town in the Litchfield Hills of northwestern Connecticut.
US Route 44 is the main road into and through town and the way most people get to Norfolk from Hartford or the turnoff from the main north-south road in the area, US Route 7, in North Canaan. Every other road in Norfolk is to a greater or lesser degree a back road.
The center of town is very small, but to get anywhere else, you will need at least a bicycle.
There may not be much to see on the village green except for a few buildings, but if you take a walk in the woods, you will hear a lot of cool birds, and if you’re lucky, you might even see one!
You could also spend your time swimming in Toby Pond, or hiking in the woods, which are full of wildlife.
Yale University operates a Summer School of Art and a Summer School of Music in Norfolk. Only current Yale students can apply for the art programs, but the music programs select participants annually by application/audition.

There are a couple good sandwich places in the heart of Norfolk. There is a nice little park near one of them.
