Navajo Lake

The reservoir known as Navajo Lake is situated in northwest New Mexico, in the southwestern United States, in the counties of San Juan and Rio Arriba. The reservoir extends into southern Colorado's Archuleta County in some places. The lake is a component of the Colorado River Storage Project, which administers the upper San Juan River and stores and releases water that is utilized for agriculture locally or eventually flows into the Colorado River in Utah.

Navajo Lake State Park is located on the lake's southern shorelines. The state park features two marinas, two boat ramps, and 200 camping and picnic areas. Boaters of all stripes, including powered boaters, canoers, kayakers, water skiers, and sailors, adore Navajo Lake. The San Juan River offers a campground, day-use spaces, and a tranquil route along the river. It is a premier fly-fishing location. Fishing and boating are two of the most popular activities at Navajo Lake. For smallmouth bass, northern pike, and black crappie, it is actually among the greatest locations in New Mexico. This lake is one of the best lakes in New Mexico.
