This is a very special place to me as I’ve been coming since I was very young. The loop trail is wonderful but be very careful with small kids. There is a small cave which you can get about 30’ back into and is cool if your not claustrophobic. Great views of the reservoir and has a nice picnic area with grills. Unfortunately, the bathrooms were absolutely disgusting and quite rundown the last time I went.

Great spot for a scenic view. Beautful rock formations. Recommend taking the walk on the Rimrock trail starting near the Allegheny Reservoir. Well graded and we'll maintained, it takes you through the forest and alongside stunning rock formations. The final climb is on stairs through a narrow cleft in the rock wall. Not wheelchair friendly, but there are bathrooms at the bottom and put toilets at the top. Although the trail is about 1.2 miles long, we saw multiple preschoolers negotiating it happily. There are parking lots top and bottom giving you multiple options to access it. If you park at the top, you can skip the hike and still get the view. There are stairs to negotiate from that end as well. No admission fee or ticket required.

What a beautiful overlook. We also walked the cave, and it was awesome. My wife and I drove up from Pittsburgh and spent a couple of nights in the area. We will travel here again.
