Southwest Connector Trail

The Next Link in 33-Mile Network of Paved Trails

This PATH Foundation-led project will ultimately connect to the Atlanta BeltLine through the Westview neighborhood in southwest Atlanta.

The Southwest Connector Trail winds through a serene stretch of woods, originating at the existing Lionel Hampton Trail, passing by Beecher Hills Elementary School, and emerging onto Westwood Avenue. When complete, this trail will run 4.5 miles. With connections between the Beecher Hills and Westwood Terrace neighborhoods, the trail will allow for improved access to Beecher Hills Elementary School.

Read the recap of the groundbreaking of the Southwest Connector Trail that took place on January 12, 2013 and view the photo gallery.

PATH Foundation is managing construction of the project and has already started clearing ground for the project. Phase I of the Southwest Connector Trail along with the Eastside Trail, the West End Trail and the Northside Trail will bring the total of permanent trails to nearly seven miles along and near the corridor.
