Confirmed from Robb Hollow Park'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.
Leashed dogs are welcome at this 28-acre, wooded area, which is largely undeveloped.
What runners say about Robb Hollow Park
“Beautiful setting which is very quiet and peaceful for thinking.”
“Beautiful setting which is very quiet and peaceful for thinking.”
“The trail that borders Robb Hollow is an easy hike.”
Finding the trail head is not self-explanatory. One end of the trail is off of Driftwood Dr. The other end of the trail is Mt. Lebanon Public Works Yard (1250 Lindendale Dr). You can park at the Public Works yard and find a part of the trail. It leads to a large grassy area.
Robb Hollow Park is a magical place because it's nestled in a densely populated suburb just 7 miles from downtown Pittsburgh and features a wide array of wildlife and foliage. The trail that borders Robb Hollow is an easy hike. The trails bordering Cedar and Painter's Run are very steep.
Nice place to talk a walk and enjoy nature. Beautiful setting which is very quiet and peaceful for thinking. I really enjoyed my time at this great location.
Shhh... I will not tell you about Mt Lebanon's best kept secret. Great place to walk your dog or get a short trail run in. Rarely pass other ppl in there.

The practical stuff
- AccessPosted hours — posted hours below; park gates sometimes close earlier than the listing says
- DistanceNot reported. Trail systems often quote total path mileage rather than a single loop, so measure the route you actually want before you drive out.
- ShadeNot reported. Assume some of it is exposed and carry water in summer.
- DogsWelcome, per reviewers. Leash rules vary by park — the trailhead sign is the authority.
- Stroller / wheelchairReported as smooth and step-free enough for a running stroller or a chair.
