Walkway Gravel ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Kayenta address and unloads right where you point.





Many buyers pick a decorative stone first and forget how water behaves under it. Around Kayenta the ground takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface rather than soaking in. That makes drainage and a deeper base layer more important here than in many other places.
The fix is simple: choose the right base material and compact it well. Then the top layer stays where you put it, even after a heavy storm.
Walkway gravel splits into two groups: a compactible base layer and a clean finish layer. The base holds everything together, while the top layer gives you the look and feel you want. Here are the options we carry:
| Product | Best for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Walkway Gravel | General path and walkway surfacing | Versatile blend that works for both base and top. |
| 3/8" Walkway Gravel | Small, even, easy to walk on | Smooth surface ideal for high-traffic foot paths. |
| 3/4" Walkway Gravel | Wider garden paths that see wheelbarrows | Larger pieces handle weight without shifting. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | Informal paths and side yards | Rustic look with good drainage between stones. |
| 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Decorative edging and dry creek borders | Oversize stones that stay put and add texture. |
Budget-friendly projects often use a single crushed stone for both base and surface, while longer-lasting installations use a compacted base with a clean decorative layer on top. Here is what to order for common projects in Kayenta:
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Side-yard walkway | 3/8" Walkway Gravel over a compacted base of crushed gravel | 4 inches total; base 2 to 3 inches, top 1 inch |
| Patio base | 3/4" Walkway Gravel as a single-layer surface | 3 to 4 inches for a firm, level pad |
| Garden path | 3/4" Walkway Gravel on a prepared subgrade | 2 to 3 inches; edges help keep gravel in place |
| Play area surfacing | 1"-1 1/2" Walkway Gravel | 4 to 6 inches for cushioning and drainage |
| Dry creek edge | 2"-3" Walkway Gravel | Single layer of large stones for visual definition |
Ground freezing here is real but moderate, which means the base layer needs to be deep enough to resist frost heave. A stable base of compacted gravel at least 6 inches thick handles the freeze-thaw cycle well. Because the soil around Kayenta drains slowly, a deeper base also helps water move away from the surface.
Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass. Navajo County permitted about 451 single-family homes in 2024, a county-level figure that shows steady demand for materials that stand up to local conditions. A properly built walkway saves work later.
Walkway gravel is sold by the ton, and the amount you need depends on the area you are covering and the depth you choose. Use our material calculators to estimate tonnage based on your project dimensions. No guesswork required.

Yes, we deliver walkway gravel to Kayenta and the surrounding area. The delivery date is chosen at checkout and must be at least 3 business days after your order. We deliver to residential and commercial addresses where a dump truck can safely access the site.
The tonnage depends on the area and depth of your project. A standard 4-inch-deep pathway covering 100 square feet uses about 1.3 tons of walkway gravel. Use our material calculators to get a precise estimate for your specific measurements.
Choose 3/8-inch or 3/4-inch for smooth, easy-to-walk surfaces. Use 1-inch to 1.5-inch for informal paths that need good drainage. The 2-inch to 3-inch size works best for decorative borders and dry creek beds where you want larger stones that stay in place.
Yes, we deliver to rural addresses outside Kayenta city limits. Your delivery must have a road width of at least 12 feet for the truck. If access is restricted, the crew will unload as close to the requested spot as they safely can.
Once your walkway is set, think about matching materials for other areas. Sibling materials like mulch and fill dirt can complement the look and function of your gravel paths. Visit our Kayenta hub to see all options.
