Can you believe I've lived no more than 10 minutes from here for nearly 24 years and only visited here yesterday?! I don't know what I waited for! I'm somebody who loves nature and am always trying to find out new spots to visit and this didn't leave me disappointed.
At the beginning of Grandview Park, there are some benches, a nice overlook to see the city and a monument in which I'm guessing they use to show movies on for their Cinema-in-the-Park during summertime. The view is awesome! You can see South Side, the city and Oakland. It's cool how different spots in Mt. Washington allow you to enjoy the beautiful view in different ways. However, there were a lot of trees so we couldn't see everything, but still great nonetheless. I also noticed a trail that went down into the woods. Not sure where that leads but it looked pretty interesting!
Once you get past the opening, there is a trail that leads to the end of the park where you'll find a park in Allentown neighborhood of the city. The trail is nothing special (or even that big), but it's nice to escape the hustle of the city for 20 minutes or so and be surrounded by green.
