What's on the road ahead?
Hi can anyone tell me if it's correct to say "What's on the road ahead" when I go hiking and want to make sure if there's anything special up ahead?
If the sentence doesn't sound correct or natural then what should I ask?
Thank you very much

I don't think I'd use 'road' unless I was hiking on one, or at least on wheel ruts. I'd say 'What's on the path/trail ahead?'
