Morphology
unvisited = visited (transparent) = un + visit + ed
The adjective is formed by adding the productive negative prefix 'un-' to 'visited', yielding a straightforward negation.
Etymology
Unvisited is made of un- meaning 'not' and visit meaning 'to go and see', so it literally says 'not gone to see'. That's why an unvisited place is one people have not gone to or explored.
