 Our Facilities - OverviewThere is a 1.7 mile perimeter trail for riders and pedestrians alike to walk and jog while enjoying open space. There is a quarter mile track for equestrian use only, designed for more intense workouts, both in duration and speed. There are several smaller trails crisscrossing the park, used by walkers, bikers, and riders. The Backcountry Horsemen installed a training obstacle course on the perimeter trail. 
Within the perimeter trail, in the natural habitat, there is a complete cross-county jumping course, testing horse and rider from the level of the ever-hopeful Smurf through pre-Novice, Novice and up to Training level for competition, with some Preliminary level jumps for practice. We are proud to have had Steve Buckman design and construct this course for us. The arenas are located in the more developed areas.
They include one regulation dressage arena, two fenced arenas, one with a sound system and grandstand seating,
one large warm up arena, and a round pen. There are fifty stalls with two wash racks and parking for overnight trailers. In the planning stage and coming soon is the new Western Events Arena (WEA), which will be located on the west side of the park, north of the stalls. This arena will be a 300 X 175. The Missoula Horseman's Council is seeking donations of money, labor and materials to assist in building our new WEA. Please contact the president if you would like to donate and be involved.
