The Turkey Run Trail at Emerald View Park in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is an easy 0.4 mile one-way trail that starts on the Emerald View Trail and connects back to it. Parking can be found at the large lot next to Olympia Park at the end of Hallock St. Follow the Emerald View Trail until you see the sign for the Turkey Run Trail - take a left-hand turn and continue following this trail until you reach the Emerald View Trail again.
Sights and waterfalls: For 'views' there are some hillsides across the way that you can see, but nothing special. For interesting sights, there are some old building foundations and a seasonal small waterfall that cascades down the hillside during the wetter months.
Dogs and biking are both allowed on this trail.
