Gympie arena construction

Background

Comprehensive Equine was engaged to design and build a boutique riding arena at a beautiful private horse property in Gympie (QLD). The brief: create a high-quality arena that maximises usable riding space and complements the setting.

Challenge

Deliver a generous rideable area within the area set aside on the property

Balance safety, flow, and aesthetics without cluttering the arena

Ensure reliable, year-round use while keeping the look clean and considered

Solution

We partnered with the owners from concept through completion, proposing a tailored layout that makes every metre count. Clear riding lines, thoughtful proportions, and a crisp, property-first finish come together to create an arena that rides larger than its dimensions and sits naturally in the landscape—exactly what the client wanted.

Results

Generous rideable area with smooth, flowing lines

Confident, comfortable ride for schooling and everyday work

Refined visual finish that enhances the property’s appeal

Practical, low-fuss maintenance approach to support regular use

Positive client feedback and strong day-one usability

Conclusion

This Gympie project showcases our boutique approach: smart design, careful detailing, and a finish that prioritises both ride quality and aesthetics. The arena delivers more usable space without compromise—an elegant, reliable asset for the property and its riders.
