The Beerline trail runs north to south along the western side of the Milwaukee River. The trail is named 'Beerline' because it's located near where many of the old Milwaukee breweries were built. The trail begins at Pleasant Street, just north of Downtown Milwaukee, goes north through Gordon Park, and continues through the Riverwest neighborhood following the path of an old railroad line. Currently the trail extends just north of Capitol Drive to the border between the City of Milwaukee and Glendale.
If you see any maintenance issues on the trail, please contact the Riverworks Development Corporation at 414-906-9650. Please note that a portion of the trail commonly referred to as The Beerline is owned by the County (see map below). For maintenance issues on the County-owned portion of the trail, call 414-257-4515.
