If you’re either in Pittsburgh or passing through this should not be missed. A truly special overlook that gives context not only to the city but also to the energy which makes Pittsburgh such a unique locale. Parking is easy so there is no excuse and the drive up the mountain makes you feel like you have been transported to the Mediterranean!

Now this is a billion dollar view right here. You can see the whole of downtown Pittsburgh from up here. Make sure to come when the sun is setting. The sunset reflects the light off the skyscrapers beautifully. There is parking in the street here. There are also beautiful homes along the street.

What an incredible spot to truly grasp and see The Pittsburgh skyline.A great place for photo opportunities, absolutely beautiful view, and was a huge one of the highlights of my trip to Pittsburgh.Parking is a little rough to find, luckily I was eating in a place near by so was able to check it out from there. Highly recommended location and street directly behind lined with great places to visit as well - Pubs, Bars, Salon, Tattoos, Ice Creme.A great reward for riding up the nearby Incline.Highly recommended.

No trip to Pittsburgh is complete without riding the incline! This was my first time in Pittsburgh and I wasnt really expecting much. When I got there, the card reader machine didnt work so I couldnt buy my ticket to Ride. Thankfully when you go up, theres a guy there that you can pay for your ride. Also, the place tells you about its history and how its the oldest rail incline in the country! Once youre up there, the views are amazing! I was able to see a beautiful sunset!!

Amazing, super, breathtaking, not enough words to describe this location. I would say if you do nothing else, even if just passing through you must pull over,stop the day, and just reflect.Outstanding!

Pretty cool to use a train that goes up a near 60 degree incline. Amazing views and little bit of history at the top. Although didnt seem to be much at the top outside the station. It is a great place for the novelty of riding up the side of a mountain but I dont think I will be back.

It was at around 11pm we reached there and the view of the downtown from this place was awesome. The reflection of downtown in the river added more beauty to the total view. It wasnt crowded and actually calm place to enjoy the view. Must visit if youre in Pittsburgh!!

If youre traveling across the country this is one of the best places to make a stop. Youll see all of the beauty of Pittsburgh and Mt. Washington has some really cool shops, restaurants and attractions worth stopping at. Me and the kids loved it last year and I was introduced to it by a friend I traveled across the country with back in 2001 right after Sept 11. She had family in Pittsburgh we stayed with and it was and still is awesome!
