Cercle de l'étrier de Paris, Equestrian club in Bois de Boulogne, France
The Cercle de l'Étrier de Paris is an equestrian club operating two sites called Madrid and Dauphine, featuring professional riding arenas and training grounds within the Paris area. Both locations provide separate facilities with various spaces designed for different skill levels.
Founded in 1895, the club received its official permit from Paris authorities in 1921 to establish its operations within Bois de Boulogne. This authorization marked the beginning of its lasting presence at this prominent location.
The club has long been a gathering place where affluent Parisians share their passion for horsemanship and social connection. Membership weaves together serious riding pursuits with opportunities to meet like-minded people from similar backgrounds.
The grounds are accessible from within Bois de Boulogne and operate year-round with programs suited to all skill levels from beginners to advanced riders. Access is limited to members and invited guests, so advance contact is necessary for visits.
The club was the first equestrian facility in the Île-de-France region to earn ISO 14001 environmental management certification. This achievement reflects its commitment to sustainable practices in horsemanship.
