If you want to install wood that is as long as possible, there is no way around decking boards. Preparing the previously unpaved surface will take some work, but this is also the case with the alternative products. The relatively simple shape of your terrace will reduce waste and costs.

The second best choice, by the way, would be the terrace element, but these are only available in lengths of 300 cm. Wooden tiles seem rather unsuitable due to the unpaved surface.
