The trail was a network of tracks, dirt roads, and river crossings that threaded west out of North Vietnam and south along the Truong Son Mountain Range between Vietnam and Laos.
Šis ceļš bija taciņu, zemes ceļu un upju šķērsošanas vietu tīkls, kas stiepās uz rietumiem no Ziemeļvjetnamas un uz dienvidiem gar Čiongšonas kalnu grēdu starp Vjentamu un Laosu.
