    Raccoon Creek is a short drive from the city and an amazing escape into nature! I've camped here a…read morefew times and love how easy and accessible it is for so many reasons. The bathrooms are close by the camp sites and clean! Plus they have hot water for showering. The water pump for drinking water is fresh and better than my tap at home. The lake is so nice and the ice cream stand is the best (bring cash). Definitely recommend booking the camp sites closest to the trail that takes you to the beach. It's about a 15 minute hike, but so much nicer than driving 15 minutes to the beach.

    A very large park on Western Pennsylvania with numerous trails, camps and unique destinations. The…read moreonly negative I've encountered in this park is an angry, abrasive and unprofessional park ranger. I've been visiting this place for years and had met many kind, friendly and helpful fellow visitors. I cannot say the same for that ranger - I hope y'all never come across her in your effort to find clarity on directions. My favorite areas of Raccoon Creek are the beach and the mineral springs. When the area water levels aren't low, you'll also see a beautiful 10 foot waterfall adjacent to Frankfort Mineral Springs. The beach is lovely in all seasons, but if you can catch it during the peak of Fall foliage. The many colors of the trees reflecting from the lake surface is quite the sight! There's a boat rental and the rates are very reasonable. There's also a very large picnic area with dozens of tables, plenty of parking and restrooms.

    Point State Park used to be THE place for events. So many festivals were held here, special…read moreevents, finish line festival for races. Recently, in the interest of preserving the land, the amount of events has been dramatically reduced. Some have complained about it, but to me it adds to the appeal of the park. Pittsburgh is famous for its "point" and the park is how you experience it! It is really cool to be at the convergence of the two rivers into the third river! There are some great paths around the point along with many grassy areas and some benches which are great for people watching, sitting and reading or enjoying a nice picnic. And, of course, there is the fountain! That is the area that gets the busiest and you see everything from prom and wedding photos to proposals and families just enjoying time together. On windy days, you might catch a spray from the fountain. This is a perfect spot to visit when looking for a little oasis but also still enjoying being in the city.

    How can you not enjoy this Park and the walk back to the North Side?…read more The Allegheny meeting the Mon to make the Ohio . Acrisure Stadium. The bridges. The fountain. Do you see the incline? The mist from the fountain? I love walking along the Allegheny but it is very special to come here. Be sure to walk back towards the Warhol or Clemente Bridge to see the black murals. I LOVE MY HOMETOWN.
