Confirmed from McKees Point Trailhead's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

What runners say about McKees Point Trailhead

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (14 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

I’m obsessed with the trails! My favorite thing about Pittsburgh and McKeesport area! I love sightseeing, exercising, and catching quiet-peace.

★★★★★ — Quay , Jun 2023

I'm glad they made the bike trail, there's not a ton of things to do in this area, especially with the whole family. You get exercise and some nice views, and it's free.

★★★★☆ — Paul , Dec 2019

It was a Beautiful & Quite Sunday Afternoon!!! Peacefull for a Walk along the Yough River!!!
