Small riverside park in Socorro with open lawns, cottonwoods and views toward the Magdalena/San Mateo peaks—good for landscapes, seasonal foliage and bird activity. Easy to access with roadside parking; no entry fee. Best at golden hour for warm mountain backlighting and at spring migration for birds. Weekday mornings are quiet; summer afternoons can be harsh light and hot.
