Frick Park Park Mile medal

Run it, connect Strava or upload your run — your medal unlocks automatically. Free.

Frick Park is Pittsburgh's largest park: deep wooded ravines and trails that feel far from the city. The Park Mile route links the Nature Center, Bradema and Tranquil trails for about three miles.

The route

  • Distance: about 3.0 miles.
  • Terrain: dirt and gravel trails with climbs.
  • Extend it: the full Tour Loop is about 5 miles.

Tips

  • Start at the Frick Environmental Center.
  • Trail shoes help after rain.
  • Shady and cool in summer.

How to unlock the Frick Park medal

  2. Connect Strava once, or upload the GPX file from your watch (Garmin, Coros, Apple Watch…).
  3. We verify your run by GPS and the Frick Park medal unlocks in your Park Mile Passport automatically — with your distance, time and pace. It's free.
