Directions to Sewickley Heights Borough Park

Take I - 79 to Mt. Nebo exit. Take Mt. Nebo Road west towards Sewickley. This road will become Blackburn Road. Follow Blackburn Road through the countryside until you come to a stop sign. Make a right at the stop sign onto Fern Hollow Road. Follow this winding road for a short distance and you will pass the Borough Maintenance Building on your right. The park's entrance is immediately after that on your right. Follow the drive all the way to the upper parking lot at the end. The park's gate opens at 7:00 am.

There is a park map located in the kiosk of the upper parking lot. Birding is generally good in all sections of the park, but these trails are highly recommended: Butterfly, Black Cherry, Bridle, Waterthrush Way, Gravel Path, Pipeline, and along the main road. To purchase a park map and to obtain a bird list, visit the Fern Hollow Nature Center located at 1901 Glen Mitchell Road in Sewickley. For directions to the center as well as information about their activities, visit their website at www.fhnc.org.
