Idiom
Informal

in a place that is very far from where people usually go to

What is the origin of the idiom "off the beaten track" and when to use it?

The idiom "off the beaten track" originated from the idea of leaving the well-trodden, established routes or paths and venturing into less explored or unfamiliar territory. It has been used since at least the early 20th century and is often associated with adventure, exploration, and seeking new experiences. This expression is used to describe a location or situation that is not commonly visited or well-known to the general public.
