Trinidad Lake State Park is nestled in the foothills of southern Colorado, and bordered by the historic Santa Fe Trail and scenic Highway of Legends, this park offers boating, fishing, hiking and modern camping year-round.
A mild year-round climate and 800 surface acres of water are ideal for numerous water sports. Anglers catch rainbow and brown trout, largemouth bass, channel catfish, walleye, crappie and bluegill. The lake is popular for water skiing and windsurfing as well.
Other attractions include self-guided nature hikes where visitors can choose a short walk near the Visitor Center or venture further into primitive backcountry areas. Hikers may explore the mountain branch of the historic Santa Fe Trail in nearby Trinidad. Turkey, coyote, and deer call the park home, providing great wildlife watching opportunities. All this, plus some spectacular scenery, make Trinidad Lake a wonderful place to play in the great outdoors.
