It's not just a desire path but also a shortcut that saves you 7km. They are trying to block it but it's coming back on the side.

Edit: Update, how it's going...

7 kilometers‽ Why isn't there any normal path connection there?

There are plans for a road about 100m away but funny enough, one side belongs to a township developer and the other part to another. The 2 parts do not meet. One side is complete (up to their side of the project) and the other has been blocked with a construction hoarding for the past 2 years.

With the project not seeing completion anytime soon, people started to find their own ways around it.
