Easiest way to make horse jumps on trails?

Question

Hi, I have 3 horses where I live and about 15 awesome trails :) what is the easiest and cheapest way to make small jumps on them?

Answer 1

If you have any small dead logs, those make fun and very inexpensive jumps! I have done them on trails, just make sure they are small enough so there is no risk of injury!  

Answer 2

You can drop logs over the trails, plant bushes in the path, or gather branches. You can also place some hay bales, barrels, and cheap buckets and place rocks to way them down. Also place a used gate and fencing to make a gate jump, and some ditches are all ways fun. Have fun and good luck!

Answer 3

Carefully stack, limbs and brush and fallen trees strategically along the trails.  That's what we used to do.

Answer 4

Logs and sticks are probably the best, but if you have an unused flat pasture then you could make a part of it a split rail jump. But logs and such are easy and most of the time nearby!

Answer 5

Fallen down tree's, logs ,branches ect

Make sure the landing are and take off are are free of any stones or sharp objects though.

Me and my Friend used to spend hours doing this and take out horses out over them :)

Have fun x

Answer 6

We always drag a couple of logs or trees accross the path so we can jump them. Some plastic drums or metal 44 gallon drums. Build up a big bank of sticks and branches. Barrels are realy good tho.

Have fun, Jane
