can you explain what you mean by the word hiking path? Is it about the purpose (only useful for hiking, mostly used for hiking, constructed for hikers, etc.) or about the physical characteristics (width, surface, composition) or about the context (mountain area, wilderness, outside of builtup area, etc.)?
