(For information about the '''Beatpath method''', see [[Schulze method]]).
In an election, a '''beatpath''' is a sequence of candidates such that each candidate in the sequence [[Pairwise beat|beats the next one in a pair-wise contest]].
Beatpaths can be used to describe the [[Condorcet paradox]], the [[Schulze method]], and the [[Schwartz set]]. The related concept of a [[#Beat-or-tie_path|Beat-or-tie path]] can be used to describe the [[Smith set]].
