Strzegom can be proud of its new facilities as all this year events will take place on brand new competition arenas. The footing on the main arena and the attached warm-up arena was transformed in the second half of last year. It was the first phase of preparations for the FEI European Championships for Seniors which will take place in Strzegom in 2017.
