About this tip
The Underline turns the land beneath the elevated Metrorail into a linear park, with paths for walking, running and cycling plus small plazas, gardens and an outdoor gym. Start at the Brickell station and head south toward Vizcaya, where the Hammock section replants native trees. Go early or after sunset in summer to dodge the heat. Locals also use its free yoga and fitness classes, so check the posted program before you go.
