TREC
Presentation of the competition
T.R.E.C. (Equestrian Trail Riding and Trekking Techniques Competition), coming to you from France, is neither endurance riding, nor trekking, nor hunter trials or nor three day event ....

|
A T.R.E.C. competition comprises various equestrian disciplines grouped into three phases taking place over two days. The phases are ridden on the same horse which will have to pass several vets inspections along the way. The competition aims to reward horse-rider combinations that successfully manage to tackle a range of obstacles rather than their success at any one particular obstacle. This is a competition in which outdoor training and riding school flat-work go hand in hand.
In T.R.E.C. competitions horses are also led in hand, they go under certain obstacles, they walk down into ditches instead of jumping them and they get they hooves wet (and sometimes more) in rivers. |

WORKING EQUITATION
Presentation of the competition

|
Working equitation is a discipline intended to preserve and develop equestrian skills related to driving and sorting cattle. It is an equestrian discipline practiced in a large number of European countries as well as in Asia and South America. This very broad geographic scope should be a major development factor. |
