Recreation Construction Ltd proudly delivered the Waihola Boardwalk, spanning over 1.5km through wetlands and across Lake Waihola, south of Dunedin. Completed for the Clutha Gold Trails Trust, this boardwalk enhances public access while preserving the delicate ecological balance of the area.

Designed to seamlessly integrate into the environment, the boardwalk allows users to experience the wetlands and lake with minimal impact on the surrounding ecosystem. Construction methods were carefully planned to protect local flora and fauna, with components prefabricated off-site to ensure precision and reduce on-site waste.

As part of the Clutha Gold Trail network, the Waihola Boardwalk enhances recreational opportunities, supporting cycling, walking, and nature appreciation. It provides locals and visitors with a unique way to explore the wetlands and enjoy the diverse birdlife and natural beauty of the region.

With extensive experience in boardwalk and bridge construction, Recreation Construction Ltd specialises in delivering environmentally sensitive projects on time and within budget. The Waihola Boardwalk stands as a testament to our commitment to high-quality craftsmanship, sustainability, and long-lasting infrastructure.
