Holy Moly, what a vibrant treasure! We so enjoyed the 7 miles we walked with so many artsy sites and people watching opportunities! LOVE this beltline. Many places to eat and drink. We stopped at Ponce for dinner. Looked around the Kroger across the way - even there you can find delicious take out food - and a pub outside the store!!

Nice paved walking route with wide variety of graffiti/street art and metal sculptures along the path. Many cafes, bars, etc with indoor and outdoor seating, and good people-watching. Not 5-stars because even on a cloudy, drizzly Fall Saturday, there many many other people enjoying this path too, so needed to dodge bikes, skateboards, baby carriages, and other pedestrians.

We walked along the trail on a food tour and enjoyed all the vibrant energy and seeing all the street art and murals. It felt like we were getting a great sense of the local scene. Also, we enjoyed seeing the very cool metal sculptures. I totally recommend it.

We were visiting the Ponce City Market and walked out on the Beltline.
Rented a couple scooters and went to Piedmont Park. The trail is full of people walking, jogging, bike / scooter riding, just a really cool atmosphere.
This was my daughters favorite "attraction" while visiting Atlanta (she is 13).
To the opposite side you'll find bars and other food places.
It's a really cool experience, definitely worth it.

What a nice place to enjoy the outdoors.
The beltline is a great idea and there were plenty of people enjoying it.
There are nice views and even some flying wildlife.
There were some hawks on the trees next to the beltline.
Awesome.

Picked up the trail at the north start point - Park Tavern. Parked in the lot. Crossed the street to enter the trail, walked south toward Ponce City Market, then returned back. Nice paved trail.
November seemed to be a slow point for the trail.

I discovered this by complete chance and loved it. It got me away from the mid town tourist area. It is safe, clean, and has lots of restaurants and shops along the way. The only thing I did not like is too many bicycles and scooters so it can seem precarious walking. But that was more of a nuisance than a reason to stay away. I loved my evening strolling along.

Started at Ponce City Market and walked North. The Trail didn’t seemed well marked to us and we had to back track around Piedmont Park. The paved walk was busy on a Saturday morning.

The beltline is an excellent idea for greenspacing the city and environmental development. The trail is a great idea. The down side is Atlanta carries a heavy weight of crime. And it's at the beltline trail. Do not go alone.

The Beltline is a wonderful place to visit. I first found out about the Beltline in 2013 and having been visiting it regularly since then. The possibilities are endless when visiting this awesome trail. Go for a run. Go for walk. Go for a bike ride. If you start on the north end, you can visit Piedmont Park for a day in the park, or grab a bite to eat at Park Tavern. After that, head further south and you run into Ponce City Market. Stop here for shopping and/or more eating and drinking. Keep heading south. Keep an eye on the skyline. Beautiful views of the city are all along the trail. You will eventually pass an open field where people are playing football, soccer, Frisbee, yoga, etc. Head under the bridge and you will be in Inman Park, which is one of the best neighborhoods in Atlanta. Incredible restaurants are located in this area. Keep moving south and you will run into Lady Bird, a bar/restaurant tucked away in the trees off the trail. Stop in here for another drink. Keep moving south and you eventually run into Irwin Street and Krog Market. Once again, another fantastic place to eat and/or have a drink. The temporarily stops here, but construction is underway to continue path south. Eventually, the Beltline will circle the entire city. We are all excited to see how many more cool things come out of this trail. Before the trail was officially called the Beltline, it’s prior use was as railroads for trains that traveled around the city many many years ago.

Best place to park to walk the beltline and not worry about your car? Don;t mind paying.
Written April 13, 2019
I suggest to pay parking at Ponce's Market, they used the money for Atlanta's Beltline manteinance.

I want to take a 3 year old visitor walking the eastside trail. Where is the best place to start, end and park car. Or any suggestion on park the car somewhere nearby and take uber/marta to the starting point, then take uber to the car at the end point without going the same route back to car. It sound complicated, but just want to reduce walking for the 3 year old, since we don't have a stroller. Thanks in advance for your suggestion.

Where is the closest free parking to the northernmost part of the BeltLine Eastside *Extension* Trail? The Publix Super Market at Ansley Mall would be ideal, but there is a sign forbidding it.
Written July 14, 2018
I would park in the residential neighborhood just to the east. You may need to walk a block or two to the Beltline. There are no public lots. As you say, commercial properties do not provide parking for the Beltline.
Written July 14, 2018
Is it feasible to do this:
Park at botanical garden, walk to Piedmont park, to walk the belt line to get to Ponce market?
Feasible as in- is the area walkable from all these destinations?
Written December 2, 2017
If you are looking to do a 2 to 3 hour roundtrip walk and you walk fast it would be. Walking the park could be one hour by itself.
