Caballo Lake

The Caballo Dam in southern New Mexico, USA, built the reservoir known as Caballo Lake, which is located on the Rio Grande. It is the fifth largest body of water in New Mexico in terms of volume and the fourth largest reservoir in terms of surface area. In Caballo Lake State Park, which is about 16 miles (26 km) south of Truth or Consequences, there is a lake. Recreational activities on the lake include boating, swimming, waterskiing, and fishing. Walleye, bass, catfish, crappie, and bluegill are some of the fish in the lake.

Caballo Lake is primarily visited for recreation, despite the fact that it is highly picturesque due to the Caballo Mountains that run along its eastern shore. Visitors who want to go boating, water skiing, windsurfing, or swimming frequently visit this area.

Thanks to the migrating birds that stop by this 4,500-acre lake on their way through, it is also a well-liked location for birdwatchers. Fishing for walleye, bass, crappie, and bluegill is excellent in this lake as well.

In the southern region of the state, Caballo Lake is located alongside the Rio Grande. Those who want to spend the night can camp in Caballo Lake State Park, which is located in the southwest part of the lake.
