A few examples of usage:
"He's very ambitious and hard-working. He's on the route/path/way to the top in this company." (The three are synonymous in this situation.)
"Let me see that roadmap. See this road? That's the route/way to Centerville." ("Path" would not be used here.)
"See that path that goes through the trees there? That's a shortcut to where you want to
