The Lake Carnegie Walk in Highland Park, Pittsburgh, PA, is an easy 0.4 mile out-and-back hike next to Lake Carnegie, which is a large human-made pond and water runoff from the reservoir treatment plant.

As of early 2018 Lake Carnegie has been cleaned out and restocked with fish, so fishing here is allowed with a permit.
