Unadilla River

Unadilla River

The Unadilla River in New York State flows 71 miles (114 km)[1] from south of Utica to the village of Sidney, where it flows into the Susquehanna River, which eventually empties into the Chesapeake Bay, an arm of the Atlantic Ocean.

Most of the length of the Unadilla forms the western border of Otsego County and the eastern borders of Chenango and Madison Counties. This border made up a significant portion of the Fort Stanwix Treaty Line of 1768.
