Oxbow Park and Preserve — photo spot in 500 Animas View Dr, Durango, CO 81301, USA
Oxbow Park and Preserve
Oxbow Park offers sweeping Animas River bends, wetland reflections, willow and cottonwood-lined banks, and seasonal wildlife — excellent for river landscapes, birdlife, and fall color. Trails and boardwalks are mostly flat and easy; free parking at the trailhead. Visit at golden hour for warm side-lighting and reflections, spring for migratory birds, and autumn for vivid foliage. Weekday mornings reduce crowds; bring layers — mountain weather changes fast.
