forest path

Route through trees

A forest path is a trail or walkway through wooded land, typically narrower and less maintained than a road.

Forest paths suggest walking rather than driving, and often carry connotations of solitude, adventure, or getting back to nature: We followed a forest path until we reached the clearing.
