About Lake Pueblo State Park

Lake Pueblo State Park surrounds a large reservoir with extensive shoreline and nearby land. Visitors use the water for sailing, motorboating, waterskiing, and river tubing, and the lake is widely regarded as a strong fishing spot. Trails, campsites, and picnic areas sit around the shore, and the views reach the Greenhorn and Wet mountain ranges to the southwest and Pikes Peak to the north. Wildlife such as mule deer, coyotes, bobcats, and many waterbirds lives in the park's varied habitats. Rock Canyon within the park is a recognized reference site for a geologic time boundary, and rock and fossil collecting is prohibited.
