Coyote Creek State Park

Coyote Creek flows through pine and oak forests at an elevation of 7,667 feet in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains of New Mexico.

The establishment of Coyote Creek State Park in 1969 introduced protected recreational lands to the southeastern region of Taos County.

The area represents northern New Mexico's natural heritage with native wildflowers and traditional fly fishing activities throughout the creek system.

The park maintains 12 camping sites, including 10 with water and electric hookups, plus restrooms, showers, and a group picnic shelter.

Located at high altitude, the park maintains lower temperatures than surrounding areas, creating specific conditions for mountain flora and fauna.
