What is another word for circuitous route?
Pronunciation: [sɜːkjˈuːˌɪtəs ɹˈuːt] (IPA) 
A circuitous route refers to a longer, indirect way of getting somewhere rather than taking a direct path. There are several synonyms for circuitous route, including winding path, roundabout way, meandering road, detour, indirect path, curvy route, twisting trail, and rambling course. These terms describe a route that takes a longer time to travel, as the path is not straight and requires one to go off course before eventually reaching their destination. While a circuitous route may be more scenic or offer interesting sights along the way, it is often less efficient and takes more time to navigate.
