Harvey gap state park

Grab your Shaboomee SUP and head to stunning Harvey Gap State Park!

A beautiful 198-acre lake with swim-beach, picnic sites and fantastic stand up paddle boarding, fishing and boating.

This small reservoir is a great location to SUP out of Silt Colorado!

Harvey Gap also offers shaded picnic tables by the water, boating with small boats and a swim beach. Harvey Gap is a day-use area, but overnight camping is available nearby at Rifle Falls State Park and Rifle Gap State Park, which are approximately six miles west of Harvey Gap. The lake sits at an elevation of 6,500 feet in an area of cedar and sagebrush, but the lakeshore has many shady cottonwood trees. Visitors may see a variety of wildlife, including migrating waterfowl. The Grand Hogback, the ridge that marks the edge of the Rocky Mountains, runs along the south end of the reservoir.

PAY ATTENTION TO THE WEATHER AND WIND. GENERALLY IT APPEARS IN THE AFTERNOONS.
