# Class: MerklePath

[@nimiq/core](../globals) / MerklePath

Defined in: @nimiq/core/types/wasm/web.d.ts:1519

A Merkle path consisting of a sequence of hashes that can be used to verify the inclusion of a leaf in a Merkle tree.

## Properties

### hashes

> 
> 
> 
> </span>

Defined in: @nimiq/core/types/wasm/web.d.ts:1538

Returns the hashes in the Merkle path.

### length

> `readonly` **length**: `number`

Defined in: @nimiq/core/types/wasm/web.d.ts:1542

Returns the length of the Merkle path.
