Garant GPTH | 85682 43″ 3-in-1 Trail Building Hoe

The Garant GPTH 3-in-1 Trail Building Hoe is a purpose-built tool for designing, cutting, and maintaining nature trails. Manufactured with a high-strength, hardened steel head, it combines a hoe, a rake, and a compactor so crews can shape tread, cut roots, pull debris, and compact soil with one tool. Two pre-sharpened blades—5″ and 6″—deliver clean, efficient cuts in roots and sod, while the serrated edge scrapes moss from rocks and clears remaining fines. A three-tooth rake on the side pulls and loosens material, pits, and removes debris when carving new tread or reclaiming washed-out sections. At 43″ (109.22 cm) overall length and 5.13 lb (2.33 kg) total weight, it balances control and power for all-day trail work. Designed for drainage as well as shaping, the GPTH is well suited for digging drains and water bars to improve flow and reduce erosion. For professional trail builders, park crews, and dedicated volunteers, this durable, versatile trail building hoe keeps jobs moving with fewer tool changes.

Across parks, forestry sites, and municipal greenways, crews value a tool that does more than one job. The Garant GPTH minimizes trips back to the truck by combining root cutting, debris pulling, and soil compaction in a single, durable head. Volunteers and seasonal staff can move from clearing to shaping to compacting without swapping tools, which keeps projects on schedule and reduces fatigue. For landscapers and property managers, the pre-sharpened blades and serrated edge speed through roots and moss so paths clean up quickly and stay walkable. When drainage is the priority, the hoe profile and compactor make it simple to cut channels and set water bars that hold up during rain. The result is consistent tread, fewer washouts, and dependable performance week after week.
