Activities and Trails
Nestled in the Sangre de Cristo Mountain foothills of southern Colorado, Trinidad Lake State Park offers recreational opportunities, wildlife and beautiful mountain views. The park features a lake for water activities, an archery range, 10+ miles of trails, picnic areas, seasonal hunting and unique geological formations. Near the amphitheater, there's a functional adobe oven and Native American archaeological site.
The park's main attraction is an 800-surface-acre lake. Visitors can boat, fish, jet ski and water ski on the lake.
The Trinidad State Park Archery Range is a self-serve range that offers visitors five static target lanes and one 3D target lane. Restrooms and picnic tables nearby.
10+ miles of trails and numerous paved and unpaved access roads, Trinidad Lake State Park offers a wide range of opportunities for street and mountain biking.
After playing on the lake or at the park, hungry explorers can relax at one of several individual picnic tables. Lakeside tables found along the south shore line are available and provide great fishing access. Covered shelters with grills are found at Sunset Point, the Carpios Ridge Overlook, and the Boat Ramp Overlook. The covered shelters at the Carpios Ridge Overlook have access to nearby potable water hydrants and flush toilets.
