Rifle Gap State Park
The clean, clear waters of Rifle Gap State Park’s 360-acre reservoir provide some of the best boating, fishing, swimming, water skiing and windsurfing in Colorado. The long, narrow reservoir is inviting to water skiers, jet skiers and power boaters.
The Visitor Center is located on the northeast side of the reservoir on State Highway 325. First aid, public restrooms, a gift shop, fishing and boating conditions, boat, OHV, and snowmobile registrations, internet access and exhibits are all available. The Visitor Center at Rifle Gap State Park also serves Harvey Gap and Rifle Falls State Parks.
