Ice-filled inlet which recedes SW 15 mi between Three Slice Nunatak and Cape Freeman, on the E coast of Graham Land. The inlet was sighted by Sir Hubert Wilkins on his flight of Dec. 20, 1928. The width of Graham Land is reduced to 20 mi between the heads of Trail Inlet and Neny Fjord. So named by the US-SCAN because it was a natural route of travel for flights and sledge trips from the East Base of the USAS, 1939-41, to the E coast of Graham Land.

Su nombre (Sendero en Español) fue denominado por el Comité de Nombres Antárticos de los EE.UU., porque en esta parte se reduce apenas 20 millas el ancho de la península Tierra de O'Higgins, formando una ruta natural entre bahía Neny por el W y la costa E de la península. Ensenada que se abre entre el cabo Freeman y la península Joerg, que cierra por el SE, en la costa E de la península Tierra de O'Higgins. En la entrada de la ensenada, el campo de hielo que la cubre tiene una altura de 75 metros sobre el nivel del mar, al fondo del saco su altura es de 107 metros.
