Description

Fall Run Park (Judge D.M. Miller Nature Reserve) is a 94 acre park located in Shaler Township within Allegheny County, PA. The park is widely known for its 30 foot water fall, steep drainages, and a beautiful scenic 1 mile trail. There are many small drainages in the park potentially leading to more ice climbs. The park has no viable rock for rock climbing, only ice, and when the conditions are right, this some of the easiest ice to access in the city.

Getting There

The park address is 187 Fall Run Road, Glenshaw Pa, 15116. The park can most readily be accessed by Route 28 from south of the city, and continuing onto Route 8 at the Etna exit (Exit 5B). From north of the city, the park can most readily accessed by Route 8. Upon entering the park, pass the soccer field on your right and park on the right hand side next to the basketball courts at approximately 40.5300398, -79.9482714.
