We have .... or rather...are developing a riding arena where we are trying to combine everything. Because the footing was so bad in the natural praire we cut with a mower (lots of those low laying cedear branches)...we decided we wanted better footing and just this past fall cultivated a 'track' around the edges. We still have the playground in the middle but will use the track to practise gait transitions, or whatever we think of at the time. So yes, we have a track...but there are lots of other things to do out there as well. Wanda
