A path and a road are similar, yes. However, an impasse is something that is not passable, which is why the original commenter was confused.
Also, the word impasse is more frequently used as a metaphor than its literal definition. Something like "The arguing couple was at an impasse, neither budging in their position."

My English is not that good. I thought a path and a road was the same thing. A vehicle can drive there.

Thank you. I changed the title so it would be less confusing.

Did you run along the trees pretending to be a ninja? That'd be the first thing i'd do.

Haha it never cross my mind. As i was thinking, I was more thinking of old kung fu movies when they float/fight in the air
