Confirmed from Mill Creek Park - South End'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.
2 18-hole championship golf courses designed by Donald Ross & opened to the public in 1928.

An abundance of wildlife in the area. If you enjoy walks on groomed trails or spotting birds and other wildlife, this location does not disappoint.
Amazing Park! One of our favorite parks around, we drive up from Pittsburgh just to hike and explore many times a year! Autumn is by far the best time! The bouquets of colorful trees are exciting to every eye that sees them!
My family, friends,and I love this park. All sorts of trails, animal friendly, play grounds for the kids, paddleboat/kayak rentals, fishing spots, golfing, tennis, batting cages, rose gardens,and various activities put on year round by park employees ... all kinds of fun for all kinds of people.
There is so many adventures to be had here! On our most recent hike, my family made it to the top of a hill just a little way off/above the trail we had been hiking on to find a really cool stick hut! The kids thought it was made by a yeti!!! Lol it certainly added a feeling of magic that day. Love this park!
