Hi!
In the German forum there is an ongoing discussion on this matter.
Frequently there are tracks that are paved (usually concrete or paving
stones) only in the lanes/grooves (what is the proper word for the outsides
of the track where the wheels run), but have an unpaved center. Obivously

In Berlin we have beaches (Oststrand [1+2] ) at the river and even in

Most sand is the product of a natural process, rather than being
created even if it's moved, just like all plants
