What is better for drainage - a gravel path or one covered with bark

both will drain well if the ground under them is free draining. Bark will hold a certain amount of moisture though, so you will get dirty shoes after its rained.
 
i tried bark, i decided the following:


It looks nice and smells nice when new

it shrinks a heck of a lot


you need a sheet under it to stop it being "absobed" by the worms

you need lots of it this year and half as much again next year, and the year after................

borrowed a mates shredder, left it in a pile in the corner, 6 months later its all gone, but where? (no dont answer i dont care)
