Don't really know why 2 paths were needed but alas. There is also one more to the left that is not visible.
My guess is one of the paths gets full of puddles before the other during the rain.

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

This guy desire paths.
Hi, username cousin!
Could be. I remember like 5 years ago there was only one path and it was not worn down to the dirt but was just grass for quite a while
Love me some desire paths, you can't ever have too many of them!
The Romans paved theirs down to the bedrock. 😜
Because you are looking at it from the destination. People from across that field all want to reach that point you're at and their paths gather like rivers flowing together.
Maybe the silver car owner always parks there, and later in the day when they return to it they need their own desire path
I probably should have waited for the car to pass. Never see anyone park there.
Where is this?
Planet earth. Or do you want the coordinates? The sign can also allow you to decipher the country.
Was that easier than saying the country?
Well I had no idea how accurately you wanted to know
The simplest explanation for your evasiveness is that you stole the photo and don't know where it was taken 😔
Here you go. The exact spot I took the photo.
This city looks amazing, do you live there? I love Slovenia
Yeah I do. Sadly the city is besieged by tourists every summer and it's a traffic hell.
I get you, must be tough if you're not directly taking profit off of it. Covid times must've been sweet though, eh? Haha
Covid was bliss. Could go around the lake and meet less than 5 people.
I do profit off it a bit since I work at the tourist office as an information dude during summers. Mostly just because the job is easy, short hours and pays alright. Also it's quite flexible and I still have not managed to finish a year at uni without any exams spilling into the august/september exam period so I need time and energy to study.
Some summer jobs just dont leave you with any of that.
gonna go ahead and guess these are typical walkers gravitating towards different ends of the street as they near the sidewalk, makes sense
Maybe. But the forked end goes to a low traffic road without sidewalk and pretty much just alleyways.
that's for the nighttime crime fighter route 🌝
Isn't it beautiful how they join? They could be straight but chose to combine.
You paint a pretty narrative. But sadly it is one path splitting into 2 and not 2 combining into one. The right fork has been there for over 10 years and the left one is younger than 2 years.
It had offspring - how wonderful ;p
In 74 years, there will be 10 paths.
Nett hier, aber...
Ich war leider nie.
Wir kannen alles, ausser...
This is what vintage story needs...... I wonder how hard it would be to implement.....
