Hello

I am trying to solve a problem involving a cross-country ski trail map. I wish to travel every trail on the map, at least once, but no more than twice (so I can out-and-back on a destination, for example).

I don't believe this is a TSP problem, as TSP seems to be point oriented (ensuring all points on a map are visited in the shortest path possible), whereas I am looking to visit all paths, in the shortest route possible.

Is there an existing algorithm that could be implemented? Am I overthinking it?

I'm not a math major/minor. I get math, at a university level, but it's not my field of study. Please excuse my lack of knowledge! :)

Thanks in advance.

TSP, but for all routes not all points
