The Zigzag Trail at Schenley Park in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is a moderate 0.4-mile one-way hike that leads from the Junction Hollow Trail, uphill, to the Bridle Trail.
This is not a difficult trail, but it is uphill almost the entire time as you hike switchbacks to reach the top of the hill. Follow the yellow blazes (hanging plastic strips).
Biking and dogs are allowed on this trail.
