I love the Atlanta Beltline. The giant project that is supposed to bring neighborhoods together is one of the biggest undertakings for the city in a while. The Eastside Trail has been open for a few years now and is one of my favorite places to get outside in the city. The Westside Trail is currently under construction and has some great hidden gems along the way. I spent some time on Thursday walking the mostly dirt trail from White Rd. down past I-20 and beyond. It promises to be a very scenic section of the Beltline once it is complete!
