POND STEPPING STONES
Natural pond stepping stones are ideal for creating pathways across garden ponds, streams and water features. Our range includes slate stepping stones, sawn boulder stepping stones and natural boulder stepping stones in a variety of sizes, colours and natural finishes for both contemporary and traditional gardens.
Choosing Pond Stepping Stones
Different stone types create different finishes. Slate stepping stones provide a layered, natural appearance, while sawn boulder stepping stones offer a flatter walking surface and a more refined look. Natural boulder stepping stones retain their organic shape and texture for a more rustic landscape design.
Natural variations in shape, colour and texture are expected and form part of the character of each stone.
Pond Stepping Stones for Garden Design
Pond stepping stones can be used to create routes across ponds, streams and landscaped water features, or simply as a striking feature around the water’s edge.
They work particularly well in Japanese-inspired gardens, contemporary landscapes and naturalistic planting schemes, helping add movement, texture and structure to the garden.
Installing Pond Stepping Stones
Pond stepping stones should be positioned on a stable, well-prepared base and securely supported to minimise movement.
Where stones are being used to cross water, carefully consider the spacing, height and stability of each stone to create a comfortable and practical route. Professional installation may be appropriate for more complex pond crossings.
Pond Stepping Stones for Landscaping
Natural stone stepping stones work well alongside pond edging stones, cobbles, boulders and decorative chippings to create a layered and established pond landscape.
The right stepping stone will depend on the style of your garden, the distance being crossed and whether you prefer a rustic or more contemporary finish.
