trail map
Wilderness navigation aid
A trail map is a diagram showing paths through wilderness, parks, or recreational areas.
Trail maps typically mark routes, distances, elevation changes, and landmarks to help hikers, bikers, or skiers navigate: We picked up a trail map at the ranger station.
The term extends to any guide showing available paths through a system.
