"זה מסלול הליכה."

Translation: This is a walking path.

How about It's a walking route?

[TziviaJenn]

That's exactly what I said, too! It should be added.

In the U.K. 'footpath' would be the usual translation.

Would anyone actually say this? I feel like people/pedestrian path -שביל אנשים- wouls be more common

[weitzhandler]

@dkommel There is no such a thing as שביל אנשים. The best translation for walking path is indeed מסלול הליכה (literally walking path/route). Sometimes, when you want to emphasize pedestrians, you'd say שביל להולכי רגל (pedestrian path/walkway).

[TziviaJenn]

I don't think so. We don't say "people path" in English, and I think it would sound weird in Hebrew as well. שביל, perhaps. Because מסלול is much more like "route" or "course." But definitely not אנשים.

[dandelosidiomas]

I I was giving the direct translation to what I though would be more common in Hebrew. I know that "people path" isn't good English lol. But I've never (consciously) heard מסלול הליכה, while I'm pretty sure I've heard שביל אנשים before. I may be wrong though

Well, מִסְלוּל־הֲלִיכָה seems often to be translated as hiking route.

[Gilashoshannah]

agreed, that or hiking trail for anything long distance. Footpath for shorter stretches in and around cities.
