Not many people know about this unique trail. What starts out as a "normal" scenic walk suddenly turns into an eerie journey through a trail of creepy dolls heads. The trail is constantly contributed to by local artists.
Just keep walking until you reach a fallen down tree with some signs. Crawl under or go over the tree and your walk will be transformed.

A MUST WHILE IN ATLANTA! The beltline trail wraps nearly all around Atlanta for over 30 miles. However, you can get a great feeI of the trail by following my path:
I recommend starting at the entrance near Krog Street Market. There, you can find an electric scooter to rent (just download the VEO or Bird app on your phone!). Take the scooter down the beltline heading towards the direction of Historic Fourth Ward park. Feel free to shop at coffee shops, bars, restaurants, shops, etc along the way. There is so much to see and do.
Take the scooters all the way until you reach Ponce City Market. This is a good point to park your scooter and stroll around the market for a bit. You can even sip on some coffee at Dancing Goats, a popular local chain.
Just head back on the scooter in the direction you came from (back to Krog Street) to retrieve your vehicle!
