About the Historic Hill Run, Walk and Ride

The course starts and finishes at Freedom Corner in the Hill District, a neighborhood with deep historical significance in Pittsburgh. The name hints at what to expect underfoot: hilly terrain, not a flat loop. The surrounding streets give the run a sense of place that a park course rarely has.
