It depends on what you want it to look like. it could be run underground in plastic conduit. Above ground in metal conduit, or overhead. If there is a fence or railing running from the breaker to the hot tub the conduit can run along that. If it is run along the ground it should be marked or covered to avoid accidental damage to it.
