More about Point State Park
Point State Park sits at the dramatic confluence where the Allegheny and Monongahela rivers meet to form the Ohio, marking the very spot where Pittsburgh began. This 36-acre green space at the western tip of downtown is anchored by its iconic fountain, which shoots water more than 150 feet into the air, drawing on a fourth underground river. As one of the most photographed landmarks in the city, Point State Park offers sweeping river views, wide open lawns, and a tangible sense of the history that shaped western Pennsylvania, from Fort Pitt and the French and Indian War to the industrial rise of the Steel City.
Gliding into Point State Park on the Downtown Pittsburgh Segway Tour gives you a perspective that walking simply cannot match. You will cruise along the riverfront paths with the breeze coming off the water, pause near the great fountain to take in the panorama of the three rivers, and feel the city open up around you with bridges arching in every direction. Your guide shares the layered stories behind the park and the surrounding downtown, weaving in tales of the old fort, the modern skyline, and the neighborhoods across the water. Compared to the busier streets of the Golden Triangle, Point State Park feels expansive and serene, a natural midpoint that lets you slow down and soak in the scenery before rolling onward through the city.
This stop is perfect for first-time visitors who want the quintessential Pittsburgh photo, history lovers curious about the city's colonial roots, and active travelers looking for a fun, low-effort way to cover ground. Families, couples, and small groups all find something to love here, whether it is the thrill of the Segway itself or the postcard view from the Point. If you want a memorable, easygoing introduction to downtown, gliding through Point State Park is a wonderful way to experience the heart of Pittsburgh.
