cart path

Course vehicle route

A cart path is a narrow paved or gravel route on a golf course, designed for golf carts to travel between holes without damaging the turf.

When conditions are wet, courses often enforce cart path only rules, restricting players to these designated routes.

The term occasionally applies to similar paths in parks or rural settings.
