Located in the Yampa Valley west of Steamboat Springs, Elkhead Reservoir and the Headquarters on the Yampa River offer visitors a wonderful area to enjoy Colorado's outdoors.
For camping and flat-water sports, try Elkhead Reservoir. For river recreation, use the eight public access sites available along the Yampa River.

The 172-mile stretch of the Yampa River borders private property. We thank you for using only the eight public access sites and respecting private property owners along the river.
