Beaten track
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia

“Who know no more of France than just once passing through it to Italy, that, if they would see some of the finest parts of the kingdom, they should land at Havre — follow the Seine up to Paris, then take the great road to Moulins, and there quit it for Auvergne, and so to the Rhone at Valence or Viviers: such a variation from the common road, though it demand more time, would repay them by the sight of a much finer and more singular country than the road by Dijon.”--Travels in France (1792) by Arthur Young |
