Event Description
Hopetoun Horse Trials runs in within the estate at South Queensferry. The Dressage and Show Jumping is on established grass. The Cross Country track runs in Deer Park over the undulating, mature parkland. All courses are designed to be up to height with a mix of permanent and portable fences. Each year the team work together to make changes to the cross country track to ensure new questions for both horse and rider.
