| Oct 12, 2023 at 17:10 | comment | added | FumbleFingers | I think you've practically answered your own question with your definition - the path [has been] crafted [by use]. But a slightly better verb might be ...steps sculpted by time using the water as its chisel and wind as its hammer... or ...steps sculpted by generations of feet. | |

| Oct 12, 2023 at 13:31 | comment | added | Peter - Reinstate Monica | I think "eroded" does not really fit the description of a well-trodden path. When it starts to erode it is over-used and becomes less usable, which is not what I understand you mean ("crafted with love"). The latter phrase makes me wonder whether the path is but an example and you are looking for a word (like my suggestion honed below) that can be used for other things, like tools. | |
