There was a wide path for walking up ahead— the same path that Kaelos and his delegates had used to accompany me to the pack in the first place.
It was also the path that Alpha Katherine had used to head back to her pack some minutes earlier. And if my guesses were correct... The other Alphas who hadn't yet come out of the pack would use this path as well.

The Blood Oak Woods.
