The Youghiogheny River Trail consists of 71 miles of crushed limestone rail trail from McKeesport,…read morePA to Confluence, PA. This trail is part of the Great Allegheny Passage (GAP) which extends from Pittsburgh, PA to Cumberland, MA for 150 miles then hooks up with the C & O Towpath for 185 miles to take you to Washington, D.C. (total of 335 miles). Mostly used by cyclists but it is also used by walkers and runners. Per the Regional Trail Council's website, the policy is that no motorized vehicles are allowed except for those who have mobility impairments as listed in this article of 2010 and is current as of 6/23/17 when posting this review: http://www.regionaltrailcorp.com/RTC_Mobility%20Device_Policy.pdf. As a disclaimer, I am only the messenger of the policy, not the author, and have re-posted in good-faith that it is current. It's a beautiful trail and very well maintained. On Sunday, June 4th, they had their annual Yough-n-Roll fundraiser to both promote the trail and drum up support for the many volunteers than maintain the trail. We saw evidence of much branch trimming going on. Boston, PA is one of the access points and one we use quite a bit for our starting point. They have plenty of parking there and it takes about 30 minutes from Monroeville to get there. Then, we like to ride to West Newton for 14 miles making for a 28 mile round trip ride. Once in West Newton, we love to eat at the Trailside (right along the trail). They have a great deck or you can dine inside when it's too hot. They have much to choose from and we usually go for one of their salads or sandwiches. Plus, they offer cold water to fill up your water bottle, a welcomed gesture for cyclists. There's also a bike shop below the restaurant that's quite handy. Can't say enough good things about the trail and all the amenities along the entire Youghiogheny River Trail. Worried there won't be enough restrooms? Well, if you see a ball field, there's probably a porta-potty. See Dravo Cemetery? There's a restroom. See a town with restaurants and civilization? They have restrooms. Want to visit a state park and maybe hike or kayak? Well, there's Ohiopyle right on the trail. Want to get a GAP jersey? West Newton has a store which carries them. Want beautiful photo ops? Say no more. You'll have plenty chances to take pics of flowers, water, birds, deer, turtles, maybe a snake (don't be scared -- they don't want to eat you. Be nice and ride around anything that looks like a stick. Remember your feet are on your pedals above any snakes.). Need a bike store? There's one in West Newton and Confluence. Need lodging? Connelsville has a new hotel right along the trail plus there are B & B's in quite a few of the towns. We've stayed in lodging in Ohiopyle and Confluence and were not disappointed. This Wikipedia site will tell you where access points are and where to park: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Youghiogheny_River_Trail This website will tell you about the Mon/Yough Trail Council that volunteers to maintain the trail from McKeesport to the Westmoreland County line and how you can join or donate: http://thebostontrail.com/ This website will tell you about the Westmoreland Yough Trail Chapter volunteers to maintain the trail in Westmoreland County and how you can join or donate: https://www.bikewytc.org/ Oh, and here's the website that will tell you about all the chapters supporting this trail: http://www.regionaltrailcorp.com/chapters.html

My favorite thing about Pittsburgh in summer…read more The rivers keep this trail cool and breezy. It's long - you can go all the way to Ohiopyle (the trail is quite pretty out that way), or even, with some interruptions, Washington DC! It's all very green. The crushed limestone surface is very well-kept and good for mountain bikes and road bikes alike. There are stops for water, bathrooms, benches, a picturesque old cemetery. In case of rain, there are a number of covered picnic tables and baseball dugouts along the way that you can duck into. There are wildflowers and groundhogs and bunnies and little waterfalls. And snakes. And an ex-Tastee Freeze that now goes by the name Yough Twister. Hm. The only real drawback is that you have to drive to the trail with your bike from Pittsburgh. You can't even take a bus; the buses that run to McKeesport, where the trail officially begins (as of now) don't carry bikes. There are lots of entrances to the path, most marked with little signs. In the town of Boston, PA there is a big parking lot and some playing fields and rest rooms that make a good place to start. Remember speedy Pittsburghers, pass on the left and hail when passing! Oh, and like all the great bike paths I love, this one has been the site of some highway robbery . . . Because this is a rails-to-trails, there is almost no elevation change. If I had kids, I'd take them here. But I would encourage them NOT to stop in the middle of the path if they needed to adjust something on their bicycles. Much better any day than a trip to Lake Erie. It's also nice in the fall.

The person…read morereminiscing has the same fond memories as I do, but when it was built there was barely the internet so materials have changed with the times. There was so much time, money, energy, and planning put into the rebuild. Lots of locals helped. The flooring is a comfy and expensive one. This allows mom's with strollers, those that have rolling life devices (grandparents, handicapped, etc.) There's a section for babies and toddlers and the other section (it's all in one) for bigger kids. The materials used were ones that should sustain and not rot like the wood was doing before and had inappropriate things carved into them. There's plenty to do and it's definitely loved and utilized by people from all over. I know for a fact that many come from neighboring cities to enjoy it, so that should speak for itself. Plan a day there and enjoy a picnic under one of the pavilions. There's to be a redo of the rest of the park like the tennis courts, basketball courts, and adding a small pickleball court, and skating park. The best is that most of the time it is being used and enjoyed.

We started at the main trailhead on Luzerne Street, next to the Westmont Municipal Building. "Luzerne" is the main trail and is a relatively easy hike, but keep in mind if you start at this trailhead it is mostly downhill, so be prepared for an uphill trek on your way back! They have maps and info at the entrance, helpful if you're unfamiliar with the area. We saw a ton of deer on our walk (end of May), and there were plenty of options to veer off onto different trails. There were also several pavilions we encountered which would have been nice for picnicking (however are currently closed due to COVID). We'll be back next season!

I am blessed because the park begins in my backyard so i have the pleasure of enjoying it everyday! Daily you can see hundreds of people enjoying the trails by foot or by bike. And also a fantastic place to walk your pooch if you have one. They have a long flowing peaceful creek that runs down the center with several bridge crossings for easy access. Many events take place year round. One Of my faves is called Shakespeare in the park.in which a talented acting group performs one of Willie's famous plays. Take a blanket and a bottle of wine and it makes for the perfect adult evening. They also have many public picnics with barbecues and bands which is fun for the whole family. The winter is no stranger to fun in the park as it is great for sled riding or toboggans!!!! A great natural monument for the city of Johnstown!!

Fond memories of this place. It holds a special place for anyone originally from the area…read more A county park outside of Nicktown, PA, built beside a dam, Duman's Dam. Most locals call this place by that name. Pavilions dot the area. These pavilions have been host to countless family reunions, birthday parties, graduation parties, and just plain old gatherings. On most summer days laughter can be heard from people that may be enjoying a hayride, a loop around the park on the miniature train, or playing volleyball on one of the sand courts. At one point there use to be paddle boats for the water, but I believe the water level is lower now and the boats no more. Rates for renting the pavilions are fairly decent and cheap. It is suggested that if you plan on having an event here, book it early, they do fill up fast. There are places to park a camper if you are traveling through and need a place to spend the night. Newer, more sanitary bathrooms were installed a few years ago.

Everything seemed to be reasonably priced, and we enjoyed our time here a lot!
