The Three Rivers Heritage Trail covers 35 miles, and Friends of the Riverfront currently has 35 MORE miles of the Three Rivers Heritage Trail planned. One of these projects, the VOPP, aims to build trail from the Allegheny Riverfront in Verona, through Oakmont and Penn Hills along Plum Creek, to Boyce Park in Plum Borough.  Currently in the design and engineering phase, this 14-mile trail segment will provide recreation opportunities and community connection for these four neighborhoods.

The 2024 Trail Economic Impact Study showed that the Three Rivers Heritage Trail system was responsible for $26.5 million in total economic impact just in 2023.  A huge part of Friends of the Riverfront’s work is to continue building the Three Rivers Heritage Trail – improving outdoor recreation opportunities, and the local economy.  Friends is excited to keep working on building trails and furthering our many development projects.  You can find out more about all our trail development projects here.
