The downtown portion of the Three Rivers Heritage Trail, in Pittsburgh, runs from the Strip District, through Point State Park, and along the Monongahela River before finally turning up into Frick Park.
This trail gives you views of the Allegheny, Ohio, and Monongahela Rivers, Pittsburgh's bridges, Heinz Stadium, PNC Field, and views of downtown. If you're visiting the city and have some time to kill, this trail is well worth a visit.
To continue on this trail heading north, check out the Strip District section of the TRHT. To continue on the TRHT heading south along the Monongahela River, check out the Eliza Furnace Trail.
Parking: Parking can be found at parking garages downtown or along the streets where metered parking is available.

JMT/PCT Duck Pass Trailhead to Vermillion Valley, CaliforniaMyHikes is an independently-owned platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. MyHikes has no investors, no shareholders, no goal to profit, and is owned and operated by one person. We share trails on the interwebs for the fun of it and put a ton of time tracking, writing about, and publishing new trails each month.
But it takes a lot of money, time, and effort (including espresso shots) to run MyHikes. Our content is and always will be free to use, including interactive trail maps and elevation charts, pictures from the trail, and dope points-of-interest like vistas, overlooks, waterfalls, backcountry campsites, abandoned structures, and more...
So we simply ask that if you find our content helpful or useful when planning your outdoor excursions that you consider making a small donation to help keep our lights on.
You can become a Supporter* (*MyHikes account required) when donating to unlock perks. Or you can Donate without an account.
Either way, thanks for checking out MyHikes and have a great hike!
