Camping, hiking and picnicking opportunities at this 1,305-acre park also await the Rifle Gap State Park visitor. Even golfers can pursue their sport here, teeing off on the 18-hole course that lies adjacent to the area. Rifle Gap is close to many ski areas, only 40 miles from Glenwood's famous hot springs, and home to a variety of wildlife, including deer and elk. The lake is ice free, but water is still extremely cold. Fishing and camping popular in spring, although water skiing and jet skiing are possible.
Participants typically wear wet or dry suits.
Entrance station is open on weekends.
