60 Hikes Within 60 Miles: Pittsburgh
Donna Ruff
From a city of smokestacks to a city of culture, technology, and trees,
Pittsburgh's revitalized city parks, abundant state parks, tranquil
state forests, and enhanced riverfronts offer endless opportunities to
hike and explore. 60 Hikes within 60 Miles: Pittsburgh
has something for explorers of every ability and interest. Diverse
hikes include Frick Park, which can be combined with a visit to the
Frick Art and Historical Center (free); Ohiopyle State Park, with views
of the beautiful Youghiogheny River and Cucumber Falls; Beechwood
Farms, where kids and adults can opt to participate in nature programs
and walks; and Mt. Davis Natural Area, where hikers can stand on the
highest point in Pennsylvania.
History buffs will love Bushy Run and
its museum and other historical site/hike combinations. Those seeking
solitude will relish time spent walking in lovely Todd Sanctuary or one
of the scenic and tranquil destinations of Forbes State Forest.
Beautiful river, lake, waterfall, mountain, wildflower, and historical
hikes are all in your backyard. From the city's riverbanks to the
Laurel Highland mountains of the south and southwest to the lakes and
meadows of the north and northwest, every hiker will find trails to
their liking in 60 Hikes within 60 Miles: Pittsburgh.
