Sharp sand to build up path?

[bsr]

Hello

Some parts of my lawn are used as a path, for example the route to the shed and the patches by the shed door. These parts get swampy in winter and the grass gets damaged. The soil is clay.

What is the best way to build up the path and help the top layer drain better? Can I build up with 2cm of sharp sand, let the worms dig it in, and then repeat a couple of times?

Thanks

I’d peel the grass back and put something under it.
