“Excellent professional building company, very safety focused, hard working and committed to getting the job done right!”

- Andrew Rennie : Rock Solid Guides

“Robson was fantastic to work with—from planning & design, to overcoming geotechnical concerns, & all the way to project completion. Their organization & approach to a remote worksite location was top notch.”

- Kevin Sibbald : Resort Municipality Of Whistler

“We hired Robson to help us complete a pedestrian suspension bridge project in Blue River, BC, Fall 2022. Everyone was so professional. They completed the work in time for 2022/2023 cross country skiing event across the river. The crew kept everyone informed with their online platform. And always answered our questions quickly. We've hired Robson on other projects—expecting & getting the same great service & results.”

About us

Building pedestrian bridges is what we do

It started in 2004 with a simple log bridge I helped build as a young volunteer. I was hooked. Since then I was always outside skiing, mountaineering & backcountry-ing.

That bridge lasted 10 years until a tree fell on it. That’s when I started Robson—to rebuild it. Along with a 60 kilometer network of trails & more bridges.

Bridges are cool. Even cooler? Connecting bridges to trails, across rivers, through forests, around lakes, near waterfalls, by marshes, down low, way up high, in both easy—and hard to reach places.

Because what we really do… is create experiences for visitors—making entire lands more accessible.

Why have people walk around—when the magic is everywhere in between?

BEFORE YOU GO…

Ready to wow your guests & visitors?

I’m ready…

Keep imagining instead of sharing
Keep boring guests to tears
Keep getting less than from your property
Keep seeing views from confined vantage points
Keep staying in vs. getting out more on your land
