Spanish term or phrase: Pistas de salto y equitaciòn
Hi all,

The term "Pistas de salto y equitaciòn" appears in a list of features and amenities included in a property listing for a luxury rental home in Argentina.

I believe it refers to horse-riding grounds, but I'm not sure what the appropriate equivalent would be. Considering the fact that the home is extremely expensive and set within a gated community, the term(s) should sound slightly exclusive and/or luxury-class. UK/US suggestions are welcome.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Scott
