HOOF and the 2012 Olympic Games
(This picture is a computer simulation of the new Greenwich site)
Greenwich – the Olympic Site
The equestrian events at the 2012 Olympic Games will be held at a temporary site at Greenwich.
Facilities for the three Olympic equestrian disciplines, dressage, show jumping and eventing, will be erected for the duration of the Games in Greenwich Park and will include the main competition arena, practice arenas, stables and the cross-country course.
It will be funded and run by the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games (LOCOG).

Hoof – a Permanent Legacy
The national governing body for equestrian sports, the British Equestrian Federation, was keen to create some permanent legacy from the 2012 Games and so Hoof was born.
Hoof is the result of the London riding community coming together to use the inspiration of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games to increase participation in equestrian-related activity in London.
It will provide a permanent equestrian legacy of the 2012 games
N.B: Images, maps and photographs of the Greenwich site are all provisional and based on the original London 2012 bid documentation. These could change through detailed planning now taking place.
