The eastside entrance is at Monroe & 10th Street (the corner of Piedmont Park). There’s a closer hidden entrance behind the left side of the Trader Joe’s at the end of 8th Street.
The BeltLine is a soon-to-be 26 mile paved rail trail that connects a dozen ATL neighborhoods. There are loads of cool bars and restaurants that open up to the BeltLine PLUS loads of public art. In good weather, there's usually something cool happening on the BeltLine.
