Atlanta BeltLine Eastside Trail

10th St NE & Monroe Dr NE (northern trailhead), Atlanta, GA 30309 · Atlanta, GA

Why you should go…

Atlanta's beloved rail-trail packs murals, breweries, food halls, and skyline views into a flat, paved corridor linking Piedmont Park to Inman Park and Reynoldstown. The stretch past Ponce City Market ranks among the busiest people-watching promenades in the city, rent a bike or scooter, detour into Historic Fourth Ward Park, and finish at the Krog Street Tunnel, where the street art changes almost daily. Free, open daily, and quintessentially new Atlanta.

Good to know

General sport & outdoor guidance

Habits that pay off across this whole category, not rules for this one venue. Always check the official site for the specifics.

  • Weather calls the shots

    Check the forecast the morning of and keep an indoor backup in your pocket for the day it turns.

  • Shoes, water, sun cover

    The three things that decide whether you last the whole outing or cut it short after an hour.

  • Parking and launches fill early

    On a nice weekend, lots and trailheads are often full by mid-morning.

  • Daylight shrinks in shoulder season

    Spring and fall visits need an earlier start than the same trip in July.
