This is some sort of pattern matching. What I'd do is to convert your pattern to a regex: rex = re.compile(r"/dir/dir/.*/dir/.*/dir/.*") Then create a list of dirs with os.walk: dirs = [dirpath for dirpath, foo, bar in os.walk(topdir) if rex.match(dirpath)] This is untested, but should do the trick. -- Regards, Diez B.
