Springdale

Highlight • Settlement

Springdale is a small borough along the Allegheny River, about 15 miles northeast of Pittsburgh. Best known as the birthplace of environmentalist Rachel Carson, the town honors her legacy with the Rachel Carson Homestead, where she spent her early years. Though largely residential, Springdale has a few local restaurants and shops, making it a convenient overnight stop for hikers on the Rachel Carson Trail or those exploring the area. The town sits at a transitional point along the long distance trail, where wooded hills give way to more developed stretches, and offers a quiet, practical place enter/exit the trail.
