Pecos National Historical Park Fishing Reservations
Pecos National Historical Park
The 2025 season will run from July 3 to October 31, 2025. There will be no fishing on Tuesday and Wednesday each week.
In the midst of pinon, juniper, and ponderosa pine woodlands of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains not far from Santa Fe, the remains of pueblos stand as meaningful reminders of people who once prevailed. Pecos National Historical Park helps visitors explore the cultural exchange and geographic features that played such crucial roles in the rich history of the Pecos Valley.
The Upper Pecos River, its tributaries, and natural resources provide a diverse landscape that has nurtured settlement and facilitated multicultural interactions. These resources were important to people living in the region in the past and continue to be enjoyed by people today.
The park offers fishing reservations along three miles of the Pecos River within the park. The park divides the river into three sections or "beats" that are available to reserve in advance for fishing. The "beats" offers anglers roughly one mile on the Pecos River to fish.
