POUTRAN INTERNATIONAL EQUESTRIAN TRAINING CENTER
|

The highest school in Europe for racing an riding horses.
Unique in Europe, at 6,562ft high
Situated at 2000m altitude, the training course at the “Poutran Centre” prepares horses for racing and endurance in the same way we would train top end athletes. Due to the limited oxygen in the air, the horses boost their red blood cell rates, improve their performance and regain speeds at faster rates. This winning trio guarantees a unique style of ‘training club’ in Europe.
A few figures about the speed training ring
La modernité se conjugue ici au rythme de la progression et de la performance :
• The training ring is made of river sand and is 850 m long, 4 m wide, and has a maximum gradient of 9%. There are 4 turns in a minimum area of 40 m.
• Hurdles, a dressage training area of 1500 m2 and 34 boxes that meet the requirements demanded. These elements ensure a thorough ‘made to measure’ approach of a large range of disciplines.
