Think it through. That doesn’t really have any bearing. You follow a wall and turn right whenever you have the option. You’ll exit the loop the same way you came in and continue through the rest of the maze.
Yep, you caught me, I forgot to mention the very obvious detail that you shouldn’t repeat paths that you’ve already taken unless your back tracking take a new branch. But also, mazes and city grids are two very different topological spaces, so not really applicable anyway.
“Any corner will do, from there just keep making right turns. It may not be the optimal path, but it will get you out of the maze.”
mfw the maze has a loop

Imagine walking clockwise around an city block. You keep turning right, but just circle the block, never leaving it. Same concept.

I think you may have also been thinking about labyrinths, which only have a single path
