How about changing the dot representing the person into a triangle indicating the direction travelled? So the path has the triangle pointing away from the path, and the route has the triangle pointing at the route.
Also, the destination on the route icon could be an X maybe?
EDIT: The path should also be the reverse of the route. That is, the "this is you" marker should be at one end of the line for path and at the other end for route. I'm thinking the bottom of the icon for path.

ahh i think now i know the difference between routh and path, the icons pretty much it.

no idea how good it would be, but i know that openrouteservice.org uses pyroute for calculating routes for europe and libchamplain provides a nice clutter actor for displaying maps and might gain some nice features for routes etc in the near future through plugins.
so how about glueing them together and create a free navigation system?
using openstreetmap data, routing via pyrouta, sound via ... i don't know actually
speex maybe? no idea.
however, i have no clue if there is any way to get something like free traffic data or if maybe it's possible to use the traffic data google gets.

I got the rest of the icons coming by monday.
then i have another suggestion
to make path different from route, let the path icon contain a long and complicated track around those blocks, maybe in red dots.
a route should be the simplest possibility (a clear and unique way from A to B), whereas the path (your tracks) can be all over the place, depending on where you have been.
