John Leach Park
Score4.8Riverside park on the Des Plaines with winding trails, wetlands, mature trees and river vistas — good for landscape, nature and waterscape shots. Best at golden hour for warm riverside light and reflections; spring/fall offer migratory birds and dramatic foliage; winter provides stark compositions and ice textures. Free parking near the trailhead; easy walking trails, some uneven ground and boardwalks. Weekdays/early mornings reduce crowds.
