If you live in an area with a warm-winter climate, you might want to consider a tile path.
Tiles can be less expensive than concrete, stone and brick while still delivering plenty of style. Options include terra-cotta and clay tiles as well as unglazed ceramic and porcelain tiles.Glazed terra-cotta or clay tiles, with their rustic appeal, earth tones and natural variations, are a great choice for paths in the Southwest, but they also can feel at home in other warm-climate areas. These tiles can take day-to-day wear; between the two, terra-cotta tiles are less prone to cracking. You can set either on a concrete or sand-and-gravel base, although the former will provide more stability. Clay tile can be more slippery than terra-cotta tile when wet.
The porous nature of terra-cotta and clay tiles makes them more susceptible to stains, fading and surface damage. To keep them looking their best, clean up dirt and debris regularly and address any stains as soon as they appear. Applying a sealant can help protect against discoloration and wear, but keep in mind that resealing every few years would be necessary to maintain that protection.
