There’s also ‘a/the more/less beaten track’. There seems to be a greater prevalence of ‘beaten track’ in British/Commonwealth English and ‘beaten path’ in American English FWIW. —-Overlordnat1 (talk) 11:25, 10 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
it does seem that the phrase more beaten track is readily attestable. Searching for beaten track by itself is difficult, but besides a book title i think i have found a few hits. Soap 21:09, 19 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
