Planning your Trip

A stop at Riverhills Park easily can be worked into a Central Florida vacation. Located less than 15 minutes from Tampa´s Busch Gardens theme park, the park can be accessed off Riverhills Drive east of 56th street in the suburban community of Temple Terrace.

Photographers young and old -- and in-between -- can get away at Riverhills Park from dawn till 10 p.m. There is no admission fee.

Florida´s mild climate makes the park accessible any time of the year. The weather is most likely to be hot and muggy July through September.

Photo Opportunities

Nature photographers can enjoy shooting summer, fall, winter and spring landscapes as well as rising and falling tides of the river which winds for 54 miles from Green Swamp to Tampa Bay.

Take a short stroll on the boardwalk lining the river. Or venture into adjoining Scout Park and take a 2-mile hike in the woods.
