Walking or Biking

Legacy Park is wrapped on its eastern and southern sides by the PATH East Decatur Greenway which connects to the PATH Stone Mountain Trail at the Avondale MARTA station. We can also be accessed directly via South Columbia Drive.

By Car

Find our main entrance at 500 S Columbia Drive. Please use marked parking available throughout the property. Do not park on grass or other natural areas.

Take the Blue Line to the Avondale station. Exit the southern side of the station and follow signs to the PATH East Decatur Greenway. It’s roughly a half mile to the forest trailhead on the back side of the park or one mile to S. Columbia Drive where a right turn will take you to the park’s south entrance.
