Upper St. Clair has a network of parks and recreational areas ranging from the large Boyce Mayview Park complex to smaller neighborhood parks, playgrounds, athletic fields and walking areas throughout the township.

Boyce Mayview Park is the centerpiece of the township’s recreation system, combining extensive green space and trails with athletic facilities, playgrounds and the Community & Recreation Center. Other parks and recreation areas provide additional playgrounds, courts, fields, trails and places for residents to spend time outdoors.

One of the advantages for someone considering a move to Upper St. Clair is the variety of recreation available. Depending on where you live, you may be looking for a nearby playground or walking area, organized sports facilities, wooded trails, swimming and fitness facilities, or simply open space to enjoy outdoors.

Key Takeaway: Upper St. Clair’s recreation system isn’t centered around just one type of activity. It combines large community facilities with smaller neighborhood recreation areas, giving residents several different ways to enjoy the outdoors.

Boyce Mayview Park combines active recreation with wooded areas, trails and open space, so it serves people looking for very different kinds of activities.

The park is also home to Casey’s Clubhouse and the Miracle League Field, which we’ll cover separately below. Boyce Mayview is also the location of the Upper St. Clair Community & Recreation Center. We’ve created a separate guide to the Recreation Center because of the number of facilities and programs available there.


Upper St. Clair has walking opportunities outside of Boyce Mayview Park as well. Gilfillan Park offers a particularly interesting setting, combining a walking trail with mature trees, open green space and the historic character of the Gilfillan property.

The trail provides residents with a more relaxed place to walk while enjoying one of Upper St. Clair’s distinctive natural and historic settings. Rather than feeling like an athletic complex, Gilfillan offers a quieter outdoor experience.

The Morton Road Field Complex provides another recreational setting within the township. While primarily known for its athletic fields and sports facilities, a long walking trail runs along Morton Road, set a safe distance back from the roadway, providing another convenient place for residents to walk.

Upper St. Clair has athletic facilities spread throughout the township for organized sports, tennis, basketball, baseball, softball and other recreational activities. One of the largest is the Morton Fields Complex on Morton Road, which provides multiple fields for community and youth sports. The Municipal Tennis Center on McLaughlin Run Road is another significant recreation facility, providing multiple tennis courts.

For families involved in youth sports—or buyers who simply want recreational facilities close to home—the important consideration is that these amenities are distributed throughout the township rather than concentrated in one location. The park-location guide above can help you see which facilities are closest to a home or neighborhood you’re considering.

Casey’s Clubhouse at Boyce Mayview Park is an inclusive playground designed so children of different ages and abilities can play together. The playground includes accessible play equipment along with a distinctive Pittsburgh and baseball theme.

Adjacent to the playground is Casey’s Clubhouse Field, home to the Miracle League of the South Hills. The field was designed to make baseball accessible to children and adults with special needs.

Together, the playground and Miracle League field make this part of Boyce Mayview Park different from a traditional playground or athletic field. They were created specifically with inclusive recreation and accessibility in mind.

Because the Community & Recreation Center offers so much, we’ve created a separate guide.
