Le Clos d'Arion
The installation of this outdoor arena was a real challenge for the Equi-P team. The arena is located in an area where the ground is very wet. The ebb and flow arena has since proven its usefulness several times. When the arena is flooded, it is dry enough to ride on again after an hour.

About this project
The installation of this outdoor arena was a real challenge for the Equi-P team. The arena is located in an area where the ground is very wet and regularly faces standing water problems. Not easy, but our team knows how to tackle it. The ebb and flow arena has since proven its usefulness several times. When the arena is flooded, it is dry enough to ride on again after an hour. This way Pierre can offer all his riders training opportunities all year round on a stable, consistent surface, even in the most challenging climate.
