Age 50+ History Hikes: Pittsburgh City Steps – Oakland/Panther Hollow
June 9 @ 10:00 am - 12:30 pm
$15.00 – $100.00
This month will feature Oakland and Panther Hollow. Meeting point is the Schenley Visitor’s Center, across the Street from Phipps.
The hikes will be lead by Laura Zurowski, one of the authors of the upcoming book Pittsburgh’s Ups and Downs: Exploring History by the City Steps. While breaks will be taken along the route, but these urban hikes are designed for folks who are accustomed to the challenges of significant elevation gains. Skill level is moderate to advanced.
Laura Zurowski is a technical writer at the University of Pittsburgh. Since 2017, she has published Mis.Steps: Our
Missed Connections with Pittsburgh’s City Steps, a public space documentation project of Pittsburgh’s public
stairways. Laura graduated from Emerson College, where she studied marketing and communication, and Harvard
University’s Graduate School of Education, where she received a Master’s in Education, Planning, and Social Policy.
