Memorial Day Northside, North Shore, and Point State Park Urban Hike (6 miles)
Details
EVENT:
This will be an urban hike through the historic North Side, North Shore, Point State Park, and parts of Downtown Pittsburgh. This hike is about 6 miles long, but there are tons of bail points for those who want to do a shorter hike. The pace of this hike will be moderate, but we will stop often to take photos. Hence, I expect to complete the hike in around 2.5 to 3 hours.
We will meet at the Hampton Battery Monument (Allegheney Commons Park) on Cedar Street @ 461 Cedar Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15212. Please use the link below for the exact location...
