Wonderful place to experience nature

We camp at the Heron Lake State Park several times a year. We canoe, fish, hike and bike. Clean camp grounds, nice people, fun place to camp.

Living Life to the Fullest.....:-)

For the past 2 years we have camped at Lake Heron for a week. We have made is a two family tradition. Camp grounds are well kept and the lake is awesome.

Great lake, but why using genrators?

I do not know why people use a generator in campgrounds. This is so nosy and rude. Do they need to power a TV? Generators should be prohibited at Heron lake.

Camping:
Several scenic campgrounds line the shore of this scenic lake--primitive and full developed campsites are available for every taste.
Trails:
Access the hiking and fishing trail 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.
