The invention provides an improved method of exploring paths having multiple layers. Such paths may be through any of a number of types of networks, such as transportation networks, distribution networks, business structure networks, or telecommunication networks. The method initially displays in a path explorer view, the nodes and links of a first layer of the path in a linear configuration. Upon selection / deselection of a layer expander icon located near the first layer node at which the path traverses to the second layer, the method expands / collapses the second layer of nodes and links in a linear configuration which is parallel to, but offset from the first layer. The method further contemplates the display of a topology view which, in conjunction with the path explorer view, graphically displays a structure of a selected layer of the path, with the path visually distinguished therein.
