Nestled just a few miles inland from the quaint Southern California town of San Juan Capistrano is the Rancho Mission Viejo Riding Park.  This sun-kissed, sea-breezed, multi-use property has become the hub of equestrian sports throughout Southern California.

 

The 40-acre facility is the ideal showcase for horse sports. Golden hills set a scenic stage for year-round competition. Events range from Olympic caliber show jumping to rodeos. Designed by world renowned course designer Robert Jolicoeur, Rancho Mission Viejo Riding Park  features a beautifully manicured grass grand prix field that is a sprawling 500’ by 900’. A 200’ by 300’ indoor arena and seven additional competition rings enable the facility to accommodate tournaments of any size.

 

Size and quantity, however, tell only half the story. The rest is seen in the details. The quiet elegance of the VIP Medal club and sponsor tent, the convenience of on-site catering and the extensive facilities for the competitors all attest to management’s commitment to making their events a success for everyone involved.

 

Grandstands and tented seating on the banks surrounding the grand prix field provide up-close views for all. Grass expanses between arenas invite visitors to while away the breaks in competition by visiting vendor booths, strolling the grounds or picnicking. Most tournaments feature Family Fun Days with kid-friendly activities and entertainers.

 

The Rancho Mission Viejo Riding Park  is located within an easy drive of many of Southern California’s favorite destinations. Disneyland, California Adventure and Legoland are nearby. The historic San Juan Capistrano Mission is just minutes away. Upscale shopping at South Coast Plaza and Fashion Island, as well as five-star accommodations at the Ritz Carlton and the St. Regis are close by. And, of course, endless beaches beckon from just a few miles down the road.
