I also found this link http://es.wiktionary.org/wiki/picada: senda estrecha en los montes y especialmente el paso en los arroyos donde sólo se puede cruzar a caballo
here´s the sentence: "...lleva hasta el Refugio Neumeyer del Club Andino Bariloche, donde hay pistas de esquí de fondo y "picadas" a la Laguna Verde y al Cerro Challhuaco"
I agree with carmen, it depends a lot on the target audience. I like "trails" for US English target, but it wouldn't be as appropriate for UK English target. UK English is more likely to use: footpath, path, track, etc. depending on exact characteristics.
You really have many options that are all good as evidenced in all the answers given. What country is this for? I think a great deal would depend on the preference of the target audience!
