lake is so wonderful. Burg Dam is worth stopping at while you're here; don't leave Burg Reservoir without first going for a hike along the Rim Trail. This lake is so wonderful. A visit to Colorado National Monument is worthwhile.
That right there is a load of amusing stuff already but it goes on, the Uncompahgre Plateau Mountains has it all. Burg Reservoir is not the only location nearby, Fruita Reservoir Number 3 is a nearby lake; there are fine sites to
explore along the Gill Creek Trail. Now, you may imagine that's lots but there's even more amusing stuff to do here at Burg Reservoir. Camping is available at The Falls Campground; whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's
for you then, we recommend Colorado River. Dry warm beds await you at La Quinta Inn And Suites Fruita, and camping at Hay Press Campground is always a fine experience.
