Sometimes, human desire is so strong that it cannot be held back. It is in human nature to want to explore, wander, and make new pathways. This is something many people don't realize they are even doing, but after so much time, it shows. It is pretty interesting to see how the quiet, subconscious, yet similar thoughts of so many people can add up to make a serious dent in the world.

Desire paths are pathways and walkways that have been carved out simply due to people wanting them or needing them there. Everyone has seen, and probably even taken, a path that was not paved or intended in the slightest. These paths began with someone who took a route that seemed simpler than the one which was intended to be taken.

Desire paths are interesting; they are all over the world, and some people have taken it upon themselves to photograph the coolest ones so everyone can see them. Here are just a few desired paths that folks created on their own.
