I agree with zsarmin but 'path' would be used more than pavement for me. Maybe it varies depending on the accent
- English (UK)
Yer a sidewalk is a pavement in the UK, pavements are at ether side of the road while paths are away from roads and motor vehicles.

I use path for both meanings, but that could be specific to my Northern England accent.
- English (UK)
a pavement is on either side of the street and is made of concrete or stone, where as a path is between buildings or through a park and is usually rough dirt or gravel.

Yes the correct way is "pavement" but you will hear people call it a "path" too, even though it's not "dictionary correct" people do say it, could be regional, I hear path more than pavement where I'm from!
