South Side Slopes Neighborhood Association
"Neighbors working together to make the Slopes a more livable, beautiful, and safe community"

The Pittsburgh StepTrek is a self-guided walking tour through the historic public stairways of the South Side Slopes, a neighborhood home to 68 staircases and over 5,400 steps.
Since 2000, the South Side Slopes Neighborhood Association has welcomed urban hikers to explore this unique hillside community during StepTrek. This family-friendly event blends photography, local history, and the charm of a neighborhood built on steps.
StepTrek is also the sole fundraiser for our volunteer-run, nonprofit organization committed to keeping the Slopes clean, green, and safe.
