Tetilla Peak Recreation Area

Cochiti Dam is the 11th largest earth-filled dam in the world. Cochiti Lake derives its name from the Indian Pueblo on whose land the project is located. Cochiti has many opportunities for both wildlife viewing and recreation. Four osprey nesting platforms have recently been erected around the lake to provide nesting sites as well as viewing opportunities. A favorite water activity at Cochiti Lake is wind-surfing. Cochiti is a No-Wake Lake.
