| About: -
Peña Blanca Lake was built in 1957 by the Arizona Game and Fish Department. It
provides water-related recreation year round, although its location so close to
the Mexican border can be a bit deceptive. The mountain lake located at 4,000 feet above sea level and its climate
reflects that fact. The body of water fills 49 acres of Peña Blanca Canyon in the Pajarito Mountain
foothills. It is surrounded by grassy, oak-dotted hills, some of which are
topped with bluffs of limestone. Peña Blanca Lake is a popular recreation spot
for visitors from neighboring Nogales, Arizona and nearby communities in Mexico
as well. Whenever you choose to visit Peña Blanca Lake, youll find a number of recreational opportunities to enjoy. In the winter, fishing for stocked trout is the best. Warm water species such as catfish, bass and bluegill challenge anglers year-round. The lake is also open to boats with power sources limited to single electric trolling motors. Birdwatching, photography and hiking are some of the other activities that are quite popular here and one of the best ways to enjoy them is on the Peña Blanca Trail #41. This mostly level pathway follows the shoreline for the majority of its two mile route which goes most of the way around the lake. LOCATION/DIRECTION:
