Not really; see the "rails to trails" movement.
Yes, "trail" is an even more ambiguous word than "path". It can refer to
just about anything that isn't a paved road. So it might be a forest
track, or a hiking path, or a mountain bike trail etc. And it might be
an official, signposted route or it might not.
See for example http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trail
So best to avoid using "trail", as people will assume it applies many
different things.
