Trujillo Meadows Boating Site is a fishing lake on Trujillo Meadows Reservoir in the Conejos Peak Ranger District of Rio Grande National Forest in Colorado, managed by the Forest Service. The reservoir covers 69 surface acres and holds browns, rainbows and occasional brook trout. A boat ramp gives access to small motorized and non-motorized boats, and the lake is a no-wake lake. Trujillo Meadows Campground sits about half a mile away, making it the closest place to camp. Chama Chile, a cross-country ski area, is about 2 miles off, and the Red Lake hike is roughly 3 miles away. Paddlers can also look to Elk Creek, about 6 miles from the lake.
