JONTY EDGAR

Jonty Edgar and his family have been strong supporters of the trail network from the very beginning, continuing the legacy of his late father, Sir Eion Edgar. Committed to fostering the development of the Southern Lakes Trails, Jonty’s involvement reflects both a deep personal connection to the region and a desire to see it flourish.

With a background in finance and extensive community connections, Jonty brings invaluable expertise to the trust. His passion for the Otago region runs deep, having lived in both Dunedin and Queenstown.

Jonty is especially excited about the long-term vision of creating a seamless trail connection from Queenstown Airport to Dunedin Airport and city – a project he believes will further enhance the region’s reputation as a world-class destination for locals and visitors alike.
