Percha Dam State Park

Percha Dam State Park extends along the Rio Grande river featuring cottonwood trees, camping facilities, and recreational opportunities at an elevation of 4,447 feet in southern New Mexico.

The park was established around 1970 following the construction of the dam structure that supported local agricultural development and water management in southwestern New Mexico.

The park serves as an educational center offering programs about water resource management, local ecosystems, and conservation practices that connect visitors with regional environmental heritage.

The park operates year-round with 29 developed campsites offering electrical and water hookups, restrooms with showers, boat ramp access, and day-use hours from 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM.

The park features approximately three miles of interpretive trails that wind through diverse riverine habitats attracting numerous bird species including herons, ducks, and various songbirds throughout the year.
