June 26, 2025, Rachel Carson Trail - North Park

The Rachel Carson Trail winds through North Park, a sprawling Allegheny County park north of Pittsburgh, features over 3,000 acres of forest, fields, and recreational amenities. Here, the trail follows a mix of wooded singletrack, park roads, and multi-use paths, with fewer steep climbs than earlier segments. You’ll pass quiet stretches of hardwood forest, small streams, and open clearings, with glimpses of the North Park Lake area depending on your route. Wayfinding becomes a bit easier within the park thanks to well-maintained trails and signage, but keep watching for yellow blazes to stay on the official Rachel Carson route because there are tons of trails that crisscross it.
