South Side Park - Park in Pittsburgh - 2000 Julia St, USA

Great trail, more on the advanced side. My shoes were completely ruined after this hike and there were a few slippery areas. I still had a great time. The advanced trail leads you to a community garden.

The baseball/softball field is great. It has a consession stand, with I think 2 picnic benches, a single restroom. A parking lot, and plus it's right behind the Arlington Fire Station.

Close to home and although the trails are considered advanced they aren't overwhelming difficult. Great place to get out of the house and explore a little slice of nature in the slopes. Be sure to stop by the community garden and see the beautiful setups!

Beautiful view from the parkinglot. Not alot of parking it's 1st come 1st serve .

This is a gem in Southside! There's probably a total of 1.5 miles of trails, but I hardly see a soul when I walk the park. It's a nice break from the city and there's a special little waterfall for you to find. Nothing like Schenley or Frick Parks, but for what it is, the trails are well kept, and sometimes you can even see the goats doing habitat restoration! It's obviously the Friends of South Side Park take their volunteer roles seriously, as the park is clean of garbage and the downed trees get moved quickly. Great spot for a stroll if you live close. They are putting in a pump track soon, too!

I grew up on Salisbury street and played in this park on a daily basis. Today I got the chance to walk there and personally I was appalled. Most of those trails where there when I was kid just not as obvious as they are now. It is so overgrown with trees yet more are being planted.The asphalt paths are in need of repaired, definitely not coded for the handicap or elderly. The play ground is gone except for a larger baseball frild.Guess parents have to hike their children up to the fort. City homeowners are paying a park tax. I think its time the city does their part like they have everywhere else. I hope the residents in the community start to hold the city accountable to do their part. Im sure those who read my post wont know how that park use to be. We sled rode down 1 part that we called ski jump..its gone a pile of dirt has been pushed there and nothing but trees, weeds and shrubs..the hill that leads to the circle we called dieon because it was steep..the path that use to be behind the ball field..gone..the playground with concrete slide shaped like a horseshoe that we would go down on wax paper to make it fast...gone. The asfalt was taken care of..the grass through out was cut and lots of grass for kids to play..not no more. You put in trails so you can get ran over by bicycles just like Riverfront. Oh yeah we can maintain that park but this one lets forget about it

One of me and my dogs very favorite spots in the city for a walk. It's real low key compared to other hiking trails in the city. The views are great and imagine it's a fantastic spot for fireworks. I like what they did with the goats and now with growing trees.

Fun trails that aren’t difficult. I come here with my dog and as a person that gets bored doing the same walk too often, I appreciate you can go in different directions and change up the experience. There are deer and fenced-in goats, little creeks and waterfalls. My dog loves all the game smells and drinking from fresh, running water.
