Then use "Select > To Path"

I am pretty new to GIMP and am still learning how it works. I need help to find out if there is an easier way to do this:
I need to make a path from a layer. The layer is multiple separate shapes; imagine the dots on a monarch butterfly's wings.
Is it possible to:
1. Select from visible without having to trace each area?
2. Even better, select to path
Thanks for any advice. :-)

Apart from what Blighty suggested I don't know how you would make one in the first place. You can once you get a selection do a select to path.
If you already have the path and want to make another, there is duplicate path. Right click on your path and click on duplicate in the menu that comes up or highlight the path you want to duplicate and there should be a duplicate icon at the bottom of the path dialogue.
