The West End Trail was the first section to open of the greater 33-mile Atlanta BeltLine network of proposed trails. This 12-foot wide, multi-use path extends from Westview Drive south of I-20, across Ralph David Abernathy and south along White Street to Brown Middle School at Peeples Street. It connects Washington, Maddox, and Westside Reservoir parks with nearby schools and a shopping center. It also provides an underpass for trail users to go under I-20 for access to West End and Westview neighborhoods.
When complete, the Atlanta BeltLine will create a system of public parks and multi-use trails that link downtown Atlanta and 45 neighborhoods. A small portion of the West End Trail overlaps another BeltLine segment known as the Westside Trail, which opened in 2017 and spans 3 miles.
On-street parking is available near Rose Circle Park (982 Rose Circle SW) at the trail's southern end. From I-20, exit south on Joseph E. Lowery Blvd; continue south to White Street; turn right (west) on White Street and park along it. Additional parking can be found at Brown Middle School (765 Peeples Street SW).
