Walking on a gravel road typically involves more friction than walking on a paved road. This increased friction is due to the uneven and loose nature of the gravel surface, which can create more resistance between your shoes and the ground. Paved roads, being smooth and solid, generally allow for easier movement with less friction.
However, the actual experience of friction can also depend on factors like the type of shoes you are wearing, the size and type of gravel, and the condition of the road (wet, dry, compacted, loose, etc.). In general, though, you can expect more resistance and potentially more effort required when walking on gravel compared to a paved surface.
