Colorado Parks and Wildlife

Welcome to the Eleven Mile State Park Department!

Anglers and writers consistently tout Eleven Mile’s large reservoir for its outstanding fishing. When not reeling in a trophy rainbow, brown, cutthroat, kokanee or pike, there are nearly five miles of scenic hiking and biking trails that await exploration.

Canoe the day away around the shores of the backcountry.  Fish from the shoreline or troll from a boat while enjoying scenic vistas. Camp comfortably in designated campsites located around the shoreline, nestled among trees in the backcountry. 

Ideal wind conditions make Eleven Mile a popular, but not overly crowded destination for sailing, windsurfing and winter ice boating on this wide-open reservoir. Motor boaters and kayakers also find plenty of room to play during the summer months. 

Many species of birds reside in or migrate through the park, making for wonderful bird watching prospects. 

Waterfowl hunting chances for a wide variety of ducks are excellent and are available each fall!
