Atlanta BeltLine Eastside Trail

The Atlanta BeltLine Eastside Trail is a vibrant linear park that repurposes historic railroad tracks into a bustling corridor for walking, cycling, and jogging. Stretching from the Old Fourth Ward to Piedmont Park, the trail is lined with striking murals, sculptures, and installations from local and international artists. Along the way, you'll pass through the historic Fourth Ward Park with its skate park and splash pad, and the popular Ponce City Market, a former Sears warehouse turned food hall and retail hub. The trail offers a unique perspective on Atlanta's evolving urban landscape, blending industrial heritage with modern green space. It's a favorite for both locals and visitors seeking an active, cultural experience in the heart of the city.

Ein Stück Geschichte

The BeltLine concept emerged in 1999 as a graduate thesis by Ryan Gravel, proposing a network of trails, transit, and parks on abandoned rail corridors. The Eastside Trail opened in 2012, becoming the first completed segment of the ambitious 22-mile loop.
