Descent

The Clayton Hill Trail at Frick Park in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is an easy 0.4-mile one-way trail that leads to the "summit" of Clayton Hill.

This trail starts near the water fountain and connects to the southern side of the Clayton Loop Trail which is 0.5 miles one-way. If you're following from the fountain, stay right at the fork in the trail. Going left will lead you into brush since the trail is not maintained very well (as of April 2017, which may be outdated) in the 'loop' portion of this trail - refer to the park map to compare.

Parking
Hikers will find parking at the main entrance to Frick Park along Beechwood Blvd.

Pets
Dogs are allowed if leashed and their waste must be carried out by the hiker.
