   Squaw Valley Park in Pittsburgh is an easy 7.5 mile drive over the Allegheny River and well worth taking the time to visit while you are in Verona.

The family will love the playgrounds, ball fields, basketball courts and volleyball court. You can even throw a line in to the well-stocked pond here! Parking is plenty and there are picnic facilities, as well as restrooms. Just north is another great little spot to check out. Fay Park is much quieter and smaller than Squaw Valley Park, but has some lovely walking trails to enjoy. Keep your pet leashed in both of these areas and always pick up any mess he leaves behind.
