Beautiful park to walk around. We parked in downtown and then just walked to the park. The fountain looks really nice. We took the incline afterwards and saw the aerial view of the fountain and it's very impressive. This park is perfect to see all the sights around the the three rivers and the skyline of downtown Pittsburgh. A must see place in the city and it is free.

Point State Park is a beautiful spot in downtown Pittsburgh where the city’s three rivers—the Monongahela, Allegheny, and Ohio—converge. The park offers stunning views of the rivers and surrounding skyline, and the iconic fountain at the point is a must-see. It’s a great place to relax, have a picnic, or take a walk along the riverfront trails. With plenty of green space, historical markers, and the Fort Pitt Museum nearby, it’s an ideal spot for both locals and tourists. The merging of the rivers gives the park a unique natural and historical significance, as this confluence was critical to early settlement and trade in the area. Highly recommend for a peaceful afternoon or learning a bit of Pittsburgh’s history!

What a beautiful park! I would love to come back in the summer time when the weather is a bit warmer. Great view of the Steelers stadium. I enjoyed seeing the small fish jumping in the water. I wouldn’t imagine a metropolitan park to be so peaceful. On Thanksgiving day, we even saw people playing flag football here.

Pittsburgh's state parks offer a refreshing escape from the city’s hustle and bustle. One standout is Point State Park, where the rivers converge and history comes alive. Visitors can enjoy scenic walking trails and picturesque views of the skyline. The park is also home to the iconic fountain, which shoots water high into the air. Families can picnic on the expansive lawns or explore the rich historical exhibits. Many enjoy boating or fishing in the nearby waters. The park is well-maintained, providing a clean and inviting atmosphere. On weekends, it buzzes with events and activities, adding to the vibrant community feel.This is one of the awesome place to go with family and friends. Parking is on street as well as near by signals.
