Hi,
What I have read some time ago (on the OSM Wiki I think) and what I'm
keeping to is the following:
If a way is big enough so that a car could drive on it - and it's not a
street anyway -, then it's a track. If it's too small for a car, then
it's a path. What you are describing would probably be a track for me.
Cheers,
Michael
