pedestrian path

Footpath for walkers

A pedestrian path is a route designated for walking, separated from vehicle traffic.

The term appears in urban planning, park design, and legal contexts where foot traffic needs formal distinction from roads: The pedestrian path winds through the garden.

Sometimes shortened to path or called a walkway, footpath, or sidewalk depending on context.
