The phrase I know is "hit the trail." It means to get started. I imagine it comes from the Old West in America (or at least the 1950s TV shows) when a group would be preparing to start to go somewhere, and would say "Let's hit the trail." It means to begin a trip or a journey.

Hit the trail mean let's get going or hit the road.
