Taylor River access

Taylor River access in Gunnison County provides multiple public fishing and recreation opportunities along approximately 12 miles of river between Taylor Reservoir Dam and Almont, with easy access via County Road 742 and several developed campgrounds and turnouts.

A highly regulated 0. 4-mile catch-and-release section immediately below the dam (325 yards downstream) requires artificial flies/lures only, while the remainder of the river follows standard Colorado regulations.

Parking is available only in designated areas, and visitors should note that private property exists between the dam and public tailwaters, so access points should be carefully identified before entering the water.
