Desire paths Desire paths can be paths created as a consequence of erosion caused by human or animal foot-fall or traffic. The paths usually represent the shortest or most easily navigated routes between origins and destinations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desire_path
Taken a few days ago in Oederan, Saxony, Germany
There was a field like this near me
Tons of wild flowers and bees. Deep desire path which was so well trodden the weeds didn’t overtake it like this. I would see foxes and rabbits when I walked through in the early morning.
It’s a parking lot now. With a fence around it so you can’t wander through. It makes me sad.
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
sings
It's so hard to sing while weeping. Well done.
mmmmm bop bop bop bop

Ba duba dop ba

Yeah, yeah
Oddly liminal looking picture, I like it!
This is a fantastic photo, I assumed this was from one of the photography communities at first.
thats such a liminal space lol
Exactly my thought too
As a gentle reminder, desire paths are evidence of the want and the ability to go in the most direct path. But people without that ability cannot leave a desire path to express their wants.
Do not forget that people with disabilities also have wants, and advocate that desire paths be upgraded so that the desire can be satisfied for everyone.
This would be a paved walkway.
yeah, i did not make the offroadest decision when getting my trike, i made the most affordable decision when getting my trike. i can still take that path, but it's slow. and bumpy. and eats up way too much battery.
i can get an offroad trike next trike.
Looks like an inexpensive motel. If so, I assume that path leads to the nearest purveyor of beer and snacks.
Looks like a military base.
So same destination either way
Not sure why, but as soon as I saw the photo, I knew it's an apartment building in East Germany.
This place looks like a renovated prison...
Well it is in Eastern Germany so...
Wow, there's a whole lemmy community for this!
Used to be one of my favourite subreddits, it's nice to see Lemmy reaching critical mass enough to have this kind of niche thing.
I immediately recognized my bundesland.
depends on whether i got long socks and pants on. but i generally come prepared.
