Pittsburgh StepTrek is the annual South Side Slopes Neighborhood Association fundraiser that supports projects for the betterment of the community. This family-friendly event combines photography, historic narrative and a sense of neighborhood dependent upon steps. Through this annual event, we keep the city focused on maintenance of city steps throughout the neighborhood.
A link to the digital maps and route narratives will be sent via email by midnight on October 6. This will allow you to walk the routes during the event on October 7, or anytime after that day.
Day-of registration will take place in the UPMC Employee Parking Lot at 21st and Josephine Streets.

After sifting through the survey respondents feedback, the artist, Roberto Maxwell, tried to incorporate as many elements as possible. What do you think?
Of the 75+ people who attended the South Side Slopes summer picnic, the biggest feedback was to incorporate some animals into the forest. Please let us know if you have any further feedback for us!
We are hoping to finalize the design and present at the Pittsburgh Art Commission for review in September.
