Rural Earthworks

Looking for reliable rural earthmoving services?

Land and Trail Solutions delivers professional rural earthworks across a wide range of projects. While we’re well known for building motocross tracks, our experience, specialised machinery, and practical approach make us equally capable of handling all aspects of rural earthmoving. Trusted throughout Queenstown, Otago, and beyond, we specialise in remote high country station and rural works — from cutting access tracks and service routes across hard-to-reach terrain to steep mulching hill work in challenging country.

Whether it’s forming access roads, horse arenas, installing pipework, constructing ponds, or managing waterways, our skilled team has the capability to get the job done right. In preparation for winter or periods of severe weather events, proactive waterway maintenance is essential to prevent flooding, erosion, and damage to your property — protecting both land and infrastructure while ensuring water flows effectively year-round.

Our machinery is built for tough country, and our operators are experienced in working safely and efficiently across farmland, steep hills, and remote blocks. Whether you’re maintaining existing land or opening up new ground, we bring the right equipment, skills, and timing to deliver efficient, high-quality results built to last.
