Leasburg Dam State Park, State park on Rio Grande in Doña Ana County, United States.
Leasburg Dam State Park spans across desert landscapes at 3,962 feet elevation, featuring cactus gardens and trails along the Rio Grande waterfront.
The Leasburg Dam, constructed in 1908, serves as a water diversion system into canals for agricultural irrigation in the Mesilla Valley region.
The park grounds connect to historical passages of early settlers through Jornada del Muerto and maintain proximity to Fort Seldon State Monument.
The park maintains 23 camping sites with RV electrical hookups, group picnic areas, restrooms, and designated zones for fishing and non-motorized boating.
Monthly programs at the park observatory allow visitors to participate in night sky observations and scientific education sessions.
