mountain path
Steep hiking trail
A mountain path is a trail or narrow route through mountainous terrain, typically unpaved and following natural contours of the landscape.
Mountain paths may be well-worn from centuries of use or barely visible, requiring careful navigation: The mountain path grew steeper as we approached the summit.
The term suggests rugged, scenic hiking rather than casual walking.
