Whenever your in town visiting, traveling through or just need a place to relax and enjoy. Point State Park Fountain is definitely a site not to miss!! From sunrise until sunset Point State Park has many things happening for the public to enjoy while staying in Pittsburgh

Epic place to hang out downtown. An incredible view no matter where you look. The renovations they did years ago are beautiful. It’s the kind of place locals and visitors alike should frequent. It’s accessible by bike via the Three Rivers Heritage Trail, by parking downtown, or public transit. Amazing view of river events such as 4th of July and The Regatta. Perfect place to just lay around watching the clouds and enjoying the vibe of Pittsburgh.

One of the most iconic places in Pittsburgh!Located at the fork of the rivers, it provides a beautiful view of much of downtown Pittsburgh. Great place to just hang out and relax.The famous water fountain is located here.It draws many people, but it isnt small, so despite large crowds here, it doesnt feel crowded.

Such a beautiful serene park. Love to visit and spend time there when Im in Pittsburgh

Park is in reasonable condition. Restrooms are closed (at least they were on the day that we visited). Always great viewing opportunities on beautiful days.

Great place to come to and view the city from all angles. Biking, fishing, is allowed. Fly your drone to capture the city and views. Weve done picnics, weve done photo shoots here. Plus the strip district is not to far away.

I love this place, its so pleasant!

Always a stop on our Pittsburgh trips. Beautiful area, peaceful, enjoy many different views sit read a book. Ride your bike. Or just walk around. View of the city, sports stadiums, incline, rivers homes, train and more. Historical. Clean and Quiet space for Downtown.

I was there at night. What an amazing view. The fountain is so calming. Beautiful! You have to ho here.

What a wonderful public and lively space!

Peaceful and scenery is amazing. Great photo opportunities at this location

A beautiful place to chill with friends or do homework. Easy to keep a social distance as well!

Very relaxing. Awesome views!

Point State Park is a big an open area and it feel like walking on concrete you can walk around the point in the war sand have a great old time if youre old school you can even play Frisbee

Beautiful fountain and location. Views by this fountain is also great.

The most famous waterfall in Pittsburgh, which is located at the point of three rivers in downtown. It shoots very high and you can see it from pretty far away. Its a great spot for pictures on a sunny day. Sometimes they turn it on in the evening and theres colored lights shinning onto the water, but most times its off in the evening.

The views of Heinz stadium and the city of Pittsburgh are iconic from this beautiful park which appears to be out on a little Peninsula!! Just lovely, wish I would’ve packed a lunch to eat out at the fountain!

Of all the things you could put at the junction of three rivers, the City of Pittsburgh decided to put more water. This fountain has a powerful aura, and the only thing that could hope to outdo this level of power would have to be Tony Tiger getting a piggyback ride from Master Chief.

This was a nice place to visit with my family. I grew up in Pittsburgh and I wanted my children to visit and see all the cool places I grew up seeing.

The Start of the 150 mile GREAT ALLEGHENY PASSAGE bicycle trail

I love going down here occasionally and just sitting at the point and reflecting on life. Great place to do some meditation pictures posted are not of the point however across the river from it

Awesome place to end your day with a setting sun ...

One of my favorite places in Pittsburgh! Very peaceful, very scenic, refreshing and calming

I miss Pitt. I used to go to The Point all the time. Best city in the world. Cherish what you have and never leave unless you have too.

Great place to view the city.

Beautiful place. Definitely must visit. Riverfront. Access to bridge walkways!

Love it here. Good for any time you want to enjoy a view in the city.

Great place, beautiful. Lotsa people relaxing

Beautiful location at the fork of the Allegheny, Ohio, and Monongahela Rivers. Great place to stop if you’re taking a walk along the river. Great views of the downtown skyline and Heinz Field across the river.Clean, well maintained, no bums.@StadiumsInsideAndOut for more great reviews and photos/videos

Beautiful fountain and park. Awesome veiw of Heinz field.

I suggest going at dusk where you can see the sunset view but the fountain is also lit up.

Always a great place. One of my favorite spots in Pittsburgh.

Best vantage point to see Pittsburgh! Beautiful park!

Neat historical location. A lot of products bought and sold through commerce passes through here. Trains, boats and trucks. The best time to visit, IMO, is on a hot summer day. A slight breeze will blow the freshwater mist will blow in a certain direction. Stand in that spot next to the fountain and cool off. No wading in the fountain, though. I think you can sit there and dip your feet in, though.

A river meet point is called a confluence. Here we have a 3 river confluence. The confluence of

Great park to hang out and on a sunny and warm game day you can watch a Steelers game! Lots of fans in their boats.The fountain offers a refreshing mist and theres some historical points of interest . Clean restrooms.We bright a picnic lunch and a blanket. Plenty of places to relax and enjoy.

This fountain is huge and depending upon where around it you are youll get a nice mist. This is a popular destination with lots if ppl hear in the summer. You can dip your feet in the water but if you wade or swim when the park police come by they will scold you, guaranteed.You can also look downstream at the two rivers merging into one or looks at the trains across the river or those walking near the baseball stadium.

A place to relax and enjoy

Great place to spend time with the family

Absolutely beautiful!!! Caught a rainbow in the center of it!

Refreshing and good view point for city view.

Nice calm atmosphere, right on the river. Noce breeze, perfect view of inclines and stadiums. Plenty of seating, great bridges, easily accessible downtown area. Didnt see any vendors. Lots of people walking. Nice grassy areas. Clean restrooms.

Absolutely beautiful! Could have sat here for hours ♡

Beautiful area. A great place to take a walk. Loved the rainbow in the fountain, which was very fitting.

Best place for evening relaxation in downtown. You can spend around half n hour to one hour.

The park is the end of The GAP trail. Had just finished a hundred and fifty miles bike ride.

Beautiful fountain and view of the three rivers. Nice view of the Steelers stadium and some pretty walks along the river.

Cool fountain. Great views. Very nice place to spend a lazy afternoon. Historically significant piece of land in American development.

Gorgeous place to hang out as a stop in a walk or bike ride

Superb place, in evening you can find nice view of city.aa

The focal point of Pittsburgh. A nice walk, and reasonably close parking is available, especially on the weekends.

A cool place to walk around!

The fountain is so beautiful. During the night as well! The whole park is very nice to do exercises or just hang out.

At the confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela rivers, Point State Park is at the tip of Pittsburghs “Golden Triangle.” A relaxing place with a big relaxing and refreshing fountain, surrounded by the most scenic views.

4th of July fireworks!! Best time to visit!

It was a cool place to spend a sun set.

Probably the most scenic and iconic part of Pittsburgh.

Nice area for hiking, alittle bit of fishing, and a swimming area.

Great views of the city and a nice place to relax outdoors.

My mother and I went down for fireworks on the fourth on a whim. It was our first time there for fireworks and were impressed with how much space there was and how well organized it was. Well definitely bring chairs next year, but even without them, we had a great view from the stairs.

Beautiful park, beautiful views of the rivers, bridges and stadiums.

Just a nice place to go on a beautiful day.

Great place to take the family kids especially on the 4th of July

One of my favorite places in Pittsburgh. So cool to be at the confluence of 2 large rivers (and the origin of another). Lots of greenway trails to reach from the point also.

Gorgeous as always! Picture perfect day!

Been to Pittsburgh dozens of times, but the fountain was never on. Finally got to go on a beautiful Pitt day, 75 degrees, sunny, nice!

What a great spot in Pittsburgh. A beautiful clean park at the convergence of the rivers. Great place to hang out and people watch. There is a small snack stand before you get to the fountain that has reasonable prices. A must see when visiting Pittsburgh.

Beautiful spot in Pittsburgh, a must see if youre a visitor in the area. It looked like biking here would be really easy if you dont want to pay for parking. We were able to lay on the fountain - so it would be a great place to relax with a book or hang out with a picnic.

Better when its on but I like it alone

One of the best places to get a glimpse of various landmarks in Pittsburgh.

Very good, but some problems with people. Otherwise, pretty good!

I absolutely loved this foundation! Its huge and so beautiful! Plus, you can sit around it and soak your feet in it on a hot day. So perfect! Plus, the views are gorgeous!

Large and pretty fountain at a remarkable location.

The point where the monongahela & allegheny come together to form the ohio. Lots of history & a beautiful fountain

Besides the great views; I enjoy relaxing and eating at the park. The events held there every year are fantastic. You just never know what may happen when enjoying the three rivers here.

Fantastic place to relax and tan by the water, three rivers converge here

Always nice to visit the fountain at Point State Park.

I viewed it the off-season, so I must count on my imagination for an appreciation of the fountain lit up in full flow.

Love Point State Park keep up the good work on keep it clean for everyone to enjoy

Cool park never been down here. Walked around to kill some time. Lots of people and fun stuff happening on the water. Could have been a whole day of stuff if planned that way. Would like to return sometime.

Our kids loved running around this place. Great views. Lots of people if youre into people watching.

Such a relaxing place to visit while just minutes away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Great spiritual gathering

This is a nice refuge in the middle of Pittsburgh, right at the confluence of two rivers. With Fort Pitt, a huge fountain, lovely sunsets, walking and bike paths, make a stop here!

Highly significant area in the early history of what would become the American empire. The confluence of three rivers and the site of French and English forts in the mid eighteenth century which eventually became the city of Pittsburgh. A great place for truly spectacular summer sunsets. A definite must-see for visitors within an easy walk from the downtown business district.

Great views!

Rode our bikes all the way from the end of the C&O Canal. No mile 150 marker at the end of the GAP trail

First time here, enjoying it greatly!!

Beautiful small park but not easily handicap accessible by car.

One of the highlights of our visit to downtown Pittsburgh was Point State Park Fountain. We walked all over the city that day and reached the fountain about am your before sunset. After walking around in the grass and enjoying the park for a while we all gathered around the fountain. Now when I say gathered I am not just referring to the 11 family members I was with I mean a couple hundred people began to gather at the fountain. It was really kind of cool all of a sudden people were coming from every direction to the end if the peninsula where the fontain is located. (of course my freaking battery died) haha as soon as if finished writing that last sentence I realized my phone was at 1% so I just scrambled to plug it in before it died mid review. Anyway on that day I had no place to plug my phone in so it died and I got zero pictures. But that’s ok because I was in the moment and the moment was magnificent. The day had been beautiful and clear sky’s but not too hot. So as we sat there on the edge of that huge fountain looking out over the water with a few boats in the distance and the ball parks to our right the sunset was spectacular. I’m saying definitely in my top five sunsets of all time(and I have watched the sunset from some world class places. (Maui; Steamboat Springs CO. from the top of the mountain; Key West FL.; Fiji; The Dominican Republic, Peru; Park City Utah; The Fort at Mackinaw Island MI; The Space Needle in Seattle; The Space Needle in Las Vegas; The Plaza KCMO; The Bridge at Sacramento River; Pismo Beach CA; Santa Barbara CA; The 48th floor from a Hotel in San Francisco; Peju Private Reserve Vineyard in the Napa Valley; The Lincoln Memorial DC; Jack London Square Oak. CA; Lake Tahoe Heavenly Resort CA/NV; I could literally list at least 15 more places (wow I’ve actually experienced some great sunsets I am humbled and extremely grateful) but I digress on that day in July at Point State Park Fountain, I was blessed to enjoy one of the most beautiful sunsets of my entire life. The people were all friendly may wife’s family were all there it was awesome and I will never forget it. If you are visiting or have never taken the time to see it for yourself then go. “Treat-Yourself” it’s freaking huge and definitely a must see when you are in Pittsburg PA. Bravo if you actually read that entire review...haha sorry not sorry!

Average institutional restrooms

My favorite thing to do when I come to Pittsburgh is walk the waterfront and take in the sights while admiring the fountain. Follow this up with a visit to Mount Washington for some really great scenery which includes the aforementioned fountain.

Its a beautiful fountain...

Love this place! Come here often!

Busy and interesting for sure!

Very pretty place to take a walk or jog to relax and enjoy the view of the 3 rivers.

It was very beautiful place. I hope to come place again.

Beautiful place to visit at night!

I visited at night so the fountain was off, but it was still awesome to see it with my own eyes. I love Pittsburgh, I only spent a month there, but I hope to visit the city again before my time on earth is through. I would rate 10 stars if I could.
