Although you may think differently, there are not so many extreme activities that you can enjoy in Pittsburgh. However, this does not mean that you cannot get your thirst for adrenaline going. You can easily start with the following extreme activities to think about in Pittsburgh.
South Park BMX
The track here was named as the best one in the entire nation in the year 2002 by BMX Today Magazine. While there are some that are better now, this does not mean that it is no longer great. Professional riders do enjoy the experience, mainly because of the fact that it is located on a slope that is downhill. That offers bikers a really fast course and the jumps are always going to be bigger. You can easily enjoy BMX riding at a location that has been organizing national events for over 25 years.
