The landscape around Hartford is a wooded stretch of the Connecticut River Valley, where the White River meets the Connecticut, and this setting has shaped both settlement patterns and local commerce. The town includes White River Junction, which developed into an important railroad centre in the 19th century and retains a historic downtown around its former rail facilities. North of the junction, Quechee Gorge cuts through the town along the Ottauquechee River, contrasting sharply with the broad valley floor.
