A great experience for all ages! $5 for round trip ride, or plan to go one way and do something at the top (there is a neighborhood, stores and maybe a steak house at the top). Fantastic view of Pittsburgh from the top! A great spot for snapping photos. Bring exact cash to pay for fare (cash only). I think this is a must do when visiting Pittsburgh- it can take as long or little time as you want. There is some history / little museum at the top.
