About Frick Park

Frick Park covers 644 acres and is one of Pittsburgh's four historic large parks. Its trails wind through deep valleys and forested hillsides, and it stretches from Point Breeze down to the Monongahela River. Birders watch for species at Clayton Hill, children play at the Blue Slide Playground, and visitors find red clay tennis courts, baseball fields, and a lawn bowling green. The Frick Environmental Center serves as the park's education hub and visitor gateway.
