Trinidad Lake State Park - South Shore in CO -- Campground & RV Camping in Colorado

The park supports camping, fishing, boating, and hiking through mixed terrain of prairie and forest. Historical highlights include coal mining ruins at nearby Cokedale and an exposed Cretaceous–Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary in the southern portion. A segment of the historic Santa Fe Trail's mountain route runs through the park. The destination attracts over 300,000 visitors annually.

The road in has not been measured -- unknown, not bad.

The Trinidad Lake shoreline is 0.2 mi off. Fishers Peak stands 3,396 ft above the site, 5.8 miles southeast. Night skies measure Bortle 3 -- a dark rural sky. The nearest town, Trinidad, is 4.6 mi off.
