तत्र अपि चक्र पाद पथयोश् चक्र पथो विपुल आरम्भत्वात् श्रेयान्, देश काल सम्भावनो वा खर उष्ट्र पथः ॥

Of a cart-track and a foot-path, a cart-track is better as it affords facilities for preparations on a large scale. Routes that can be traversed by asses or camels, irrespective of countries and seasons are also good.
