If you can't find time to get away this spring break or want to stay close to home, you won't have to go far to find an adventure. Here are some top picks for the best day trips that you can take from Pittsburgh this spring break.

  1. Seven Springs Mountain Resort: Located just an hour drive from the city, you can zip line for miles or ski the day away (depending on the weather). You can also catch some air at the parks many bike trails. The resort has lots of lodging options including: hotel rooms, condos and cottages.
  2. Falling Water: Only and hour and 15 minute drive, this architectural beauty is a mountain home designed by the famous Frank Lloyd Wright. The house is build over a waterfall and is considered a National Historic landmark and is open for daily tours. If you wants a two for one experience drive 15 minutes to Kentuck Knob, another Frank Lloyd Wright home. 
  3. Meadville: Located just an hour and a half drive from the city, craft beer fans will enjoy the numerous breweries located in this city. Visit the VooDoo brewery, Sprague Farm and Brew Works and TimberCreek Tap. If you want a place to stay Sprague has overnight accommodations at the farmhouse. Be sure to coordinate a sober driver because you may be enjoying a few free samples and pints!
  4. Gravity Hill: Located two miles from the city, this oddity defies gravity. Cars appear to be rolling up hill. You can look for the spray painted "GH Start" and put your car in neutral as be amazed as it will see to roll up hill. You can also our water up hill or watch a ball roll up hill. It's worth the drive to offer a fun science experiment with three kids.
