Four ways I know of.
1. Use the column view so you can see every folder you've navigated through. (My preference)
2. Right click on the title bar's label.
3. Use the path button on the toolbar.
4. Use the back button (Yeah, it's not always up)
If the toolbar is missing, click the white button at the top right of the window to return to a regular Finder window.
:) That said, none of those are exactly obvious which is a recurring problem with OSX. About the only thing OSX gets right in that category is that almost everything behaves the same so you don't have to figure it out twice. For example, open a document in textedit, you can right click on the title and get the folder tree the file exists in.
