Natural Surrounds but Limited River Views 🌳🌊

While Herb Layt Park is surrounded by thick trees that block much of the river views, it still offers a pleasant natural setting close to Fitzgerald Esplanade. The greenery provides a peaceful backdrop for your visit, though if you’re chasing scenic river vistas, you might want to head over to nearby Fitzgerald Esplanade instead. Still, the park’s leafy environment is a nice spot to enjoy some fresh air.
