Pittsburgh Summers are as hot as Pittsburgh Winters are cold. And if you’ve ever been in Pittsburgh during the Winter, you know just how frigid it can get! So as the Summer approaches and you prepare for the wonderful juxtaposition of sweaty Pittsburghers strolling through luscious Pittsburgh scenery, the question must arise, what exactly can you do to keep you and your family cool during the Summer? Luckily, we've already composed a list of 5 Cool Things To Do In The Pittsburgh Summer!
5 Cool Things To Do In The Pittsburgh Summer:
City Pools. Located all over the city, Pittsburgh is home to over 20 community pools, 18 of which are outdoors! Only $60.00 for a family of four, with its Adult Lap Swims, Aerobic Classes, Swim Teams, Swim Lessons and more, you and your family are guaranteed to enjoy cooling off when the heat is on!
City Spray Parks. With just a few scattered amongst the city, the Pittsburgh Spray Parks are more rare than the community pools, but just as fun! Free to the public, Spray Parks are a great place to bring your kids so they can socialize and run through the giant colorful sprinklers of Pittsburgh!
Pittsburgh Museums. If you’re looking to stay dry and still keep cool, try one of the many air conditioned museums Pittsburgh has to offer. Ranging from natural history to modern art, Pittsburgh has it all and wants you to come see it!
Steel City Improv Theater. Even when the sun goes down, Pittsburgh tends to stay hot. Cool off at night with something hilarious! Tucked away in the corner of Ellsworth Avenue and the South Highland Bridge (5950 Ellsworth Avenue), the Steel City Improv Theater is a great air conditioned place to take a date or spend a night with friends. Home to some of the best improvisers in Pittsburgh, this theater is bound to have you laughing and all for the simple price of $5.00!
Ohiopyle. While this technically isn’t located in the city of Pittsburgh, it sure is worth the drive! An hour and a half outside the city, Ohiopyle State Park is home to waterfalls, white water rafting, hiking, mountain biking, camping and more! Although, while everything it has to offer is great, one of it’s most fun aspects are its natural waterslides! Slides carved by hundreds of years of running water, Ohiopyle’s natural water slides are a great way to keep cool on a hot Pittsburgh day!
So, don't be so hot headed! Try one of our suggestions and make sure you keep cool in the approaching Summer!
