hiking routes

Marked wilderness paths

Hiking routes are established paths or trails for walking through natural terrain, typically in parks, wilderness areas, or mountainous regions.

Routes vary in difficulty, distance, and terrain: The guidebook describes several hiking routes in the Alps.

Unlike unmarked wilderness, hiking routes are usually mapped, signed, or otherwise designated for recreational foot travel.
