Small riverside park on the Des Plaines River offering tree-lined trails, river reflections, seasonal foliage and quiet picnic areas. Best at golden hour and during fall color; weekday mornings have few people. Easily accessible by car with street parking and no entry fee. Expect flat terrain and mixed light through the canopy — good for intimate landscape and waterscape shots.
