In Monroeville, a morning on Boyce Park's trails can lead to an afternoon exploring movie memorabilia at the Living Dead Museum and a sweet finish at Moio's Italian Pastry Shop.

Monroeville sits east of Pittsburgh, so keep local plans and city excursions separate as you map out your stay.
As you compare Monroeville vacation rentals, consider the location, property type, sleeping arrangements, and how much time you'll spend at home between outings. Each home is unique, and amenities, parking, pet policies, and other features vary by home; review individual listing details before booking.
Start with the places that give Monroeville its own character: a park shared with neighboring Plum, a connection to zombie-film history, and indoor activities for a family afternoon. Leave room around scheduled events rather than trying to fit everything into one day.
Boyce Park spans Monroeville and Plum, with trails for walking and hiking, a wave pool in summer, and skiing and snow tubing in winter. Choose the experience that fits your season, from a walk with friends to a family day outdoors.
Best for:
Inside Monroeville Mall, the Living Dead Museum explores zombies in cinema and pop culture through props, memorabilia, and interactive displays. Fans of George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead can connect the exhibits with the mall where the original film was made.
Best for:
The Monroeville Convention Center hosts shows, conventions, and other ticketed gatherings. If an event brings you to town, make it the centerpiece of the day and leave time for a local meal afterward.
Outer Limits Adventure Park is a Monroeville activity center with laser tag, climbing walls, an arcade, and a toddler play area. It gives families an indoor outing with different ways for younger and older children to play.
Plan food stops around your day's route rather than a single downtown dining district. Route 22 is home to Moio's Italian Pastry Shop, while Monroeville Boulevard offers a market stop at Labriola's for a day when you'd rather bring food back to your rental.
Moio's is a family-owned Italian bakery whose Monroeville story dates to its move here in 1972. Pick up cannoli or sfogliatelle for a sweet pause between outings or dessert back at your home base.
Labriola's Monroeville location brings the family-run market's Italian grocery tradition to Monroeville Boulevard. Make it part of a food-shopping stop when you want to spend an evening at your rental rather than dining out.
For a change of scene, set aside a separate half-day for the region's coal-mining or steelmaking history. These nearby excursions take you beyond Monroeville without turning your getaway into a long-distance road trip.
Make a regional drive to Munhall for a half-day focused on the Pump House, a former steelworks building associated with the 1892 Battle of Homestead. Its riverfront grounds, interpretive panels, public art, and trailhead setting suit travelers interested in labor history; outdoor facilities close during winter, and interior visits depend on available tours or programs.
Head to Tarentum for a half-day outing that takes industrial history underground, with tours led by experienced coal miners. This is a seasonal excursion rather than a year-round drop-in attraction, and mine tours require advance reservations.
