Welcome to the State Equestrian Centre
Location
Located 35 minutes from Perth city in Western Australia’s picturesque Swan Valley region lies WA’s premier equestrian facility. The State Equestrian Centre is 164 acres of prime sporting land positioned on the banks of the serene Swan River and nestled between the beautiful Bells Rapids, world class wineries, top notch restaurants and many more local attractions. Home to Equestrian Western Australia it supports young riders and elite development squads in their pursuit of equestrian excellence.
The property
Built in 1985 and funded by Federal and State governments and private enterprises, the twelve million dollar property is home to a broad range of equestrian sports such as dressage, show jumping, eventing, hacking, breed shows, polocrosse, clinics, harness driving and western activities.
Our property includes an outstanding 70mx30m indoor arena with a seating capacity of 2000 including a private box area, conference room and bar which all overlook the arena. Furthermore we have four outdoor arenas. The International Arena (60m×35m), the new 80m×80m C-Quest arena, the RDA arena and the warmup arena right next to the indoor arena. The extensive 25 acre level grass regions make for great temporary outdoor dressage arenas and show jumping rings. The 2 fenced in grass Swan Fields also offer opportunity for riding. A polocrosse field and an international two star cross country course complete with a derby bank and water jump make up the rest of the impressive grounds.
The venue provides also permanent caravan sites, combined caravan/truck site, general and accessible amenities, a kitchen, dining and recreation facilities as well as 147 Stables. The stabling complex, built in 1985, is completely undercover and was constructed using mesh for open plan housing and has recently been updated to include aluminum stables for more closed in stalls.
