access trail
Way to reach
An access trail is a path that leads to a main trail, trailhead, or destination point.
It serves as a connector, getting hikers, bikers, or vehicles from a road or parking area to the primary route: The access trail from the campground joins the ridge trail after half a mile.
Access trails are typically shorter and less scenic than the trails they connect to.
