    Blue Lakes is a lake worth visiting. This lake is located in the wonderful Sangre De Cristo Mountains. At Blue Lakes you can observe North Peak; after a long day outdoors Knights Inn Walensburg is a good place to spend a night or two. This is no place for people who don’t like to have a good time. Hiking along the Santana Trail is glorious fun, and Blue Lakes is right by the Camp Crockett Trail.
And that's not everything you can do here in the Sangre De
 
   Cristo Mountains. So much entertaining stuff in the Sangre De Cristo Mountains, just incredible. Going for a hike along the Greenhorn Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this region; if you've had enough of Blue Lakes, Eagle Scout Lake Reservoir is close by. There's so much to do here at Blue Lakes that you need to camp here for a while, Ophir Creek Campground is a magnificent location for that, and Blue Lakes is not the only place close by, Lake  
               Isabel is a close by lake.

Fun? I must have the wrong place. Getting to Marion Lake is fun as well as the hiking sites along the way (Marion Mine, and others) but I wouldn't say this is a tourist stop. OK place to grab a few fish, but stay well-hidden. It is a level area and a quick walk can be made to Greenhorn Mountain Road....
