country road
Unpaved rural path
A country road is a road running through rural areas, typically narrow, winding, and less maintained than highways.
Country roads pass through farmland, woods, and small towns rather than urban centers.
The term evokes leisurely driving, scenic views, and a slower pace: We took the country road instead of the interstate.
