You will have to cross the river which has no bridge. Either take off your shoes or skillfully traverse the river by rock hopping across. If you have poles you stand a better chance of not falling off the stepping stones. After the falls you can drive all the way up to the dam and park there. Mountain goats do walk about there to lick the dust off cars or lick the roads there for salt which was left over from the salting of the roads during winter. If you are lucky you will be able to see them up close. Apparently they are there frequently. The views are spectacular in this glacial valley.

We played in the lake with our dog Daisy, she absolutely loves swimming for toys and the water amazing! It was cold but not freezing, we want to bring our paddle boards next time. We park at mountain view overlook, be sure to pay the fee to park or you will get a ticket! We love coming here, the views are amazing and it's never too crowded. Highly recommend stopping by or camping here.

There are lots of climbing options, from the fish sculptures to the log maze to the tall climber with a slide. If you've got a bicycle, there's a little offroad bike park with bumps and jumps. Good swings, a few other play features; shaded picnic benches. The bathroom was clean and appreciated. Nice to have water fountain and bottle filler too! While we were there, a small storm passed with some showers and tiny hail; we took shelter under the nearby bridge and washed the river burble by for a few minutes. Would gladly stop here again!

The pool isn't bathtub hot, but it wasn't COLD either. They can convert to OUTDOOR for summer. You can buy passes or X number of "punches." You can use the entire center on one "punch" on a "punch pass." Swim, then use exercise equipment or vice versa. They also have a sauna, but it wasn't working today, They have modern exercise equipment. Their hours are very accommodating for early risers or after work. I think they have classes. They have some very nice conference rooms. The pool is handicapped accessible. Starts at zero depth and gradually goes to 3 feet. then you cross over to the "lap lanes" which are five feet deep. There are only two "lap lanes" but they are fairly wide. The three foot section has a slide, but only kids can go on the slide. Adults would "hit bottom." The Three foot section also has a basket ball hoop. It appears you need to bring your own towel. I didn't bring one, had to use the air dryer to dry off. You could park an RV in this parking lot.

That's why we Coloradans feel lucky to have close access to these crystal clear lakes only a short drive away from our homes. Well, after living in the state for 28 years, I belatedly had a chance to climb up to see the beauty of Mohawk Lakes just several days ago. Due to the unprecedentedly low snowfall the past season (2025/2026), the lower Mohawk Lake's water level was quite low. This was by no means a disappointing view in any way; it still was emitting the beauty of a clear lake image that calmed us the hikers. We got tempted to sit right by the lakeside and start reading a great book although we didn't have one (lol). Two beautiful waterfalls treated us on the way to the top which we, of course, took advantage of by walking around them and snapping photos. Watching the rushing waters invigorated our spirits. Upper Mohawk Lake was the absolute treat to state the least. This lake deserves far better expression than "beautiful" or "stunning" as those words were quite ordinary for it. "Splendid" might be a bit better to use to describe its incredible depth of the character and the charm. Well, you will have to see it for yourself; mere words or even well-taken photos don't justify how gorgeous it is. Late August was a bit too late for the colorful wild flowers and yet it wasn't completely devoid of them as we saw some dark pink and white on the way. The trail gets a bit confusing during the 4.5 miles walk. You might feel a bit lost due to the lack of signs (we did too) especially when we got closer to the lakes (so I would say the last 0.75 miles or a mile) but we kind of followed other hikers to stay on the road. Don't worry; you'll get there! The Canada Jays or Gray/Grey Jays, fluffy mostly white with some black, were quite friendly! They flew over to us where we almost got to pet them! When they come close to you, stick your index finger. They might come and lightly and playfully bite it but it won't hurt. They are absolutely adorable and made our hike so memorable.
