Heron Lake State Park – Area Recreation

The lake is ideal for sailing, kayaking, canoeing and windsurfing, as well as fishing for record-size trout. The Park has been designated a “quiet lake” where boats operate at no-wake speeds only. The Park also has a visitor center, beach, marina, boat ramp and dock.

Ice fishing is popular in winter, as is snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. Hiking and fishing trails can bee accessed along the gorgeous Rio Chama from the dramatic caprock stairway near Heron Dam. The 5.5-mile trail, which crosses the river by suspension bridge, affords panoramic views and an adventurous route to neighboring El Vado Lake.
