Equestrian Riding Arena in Amissville, Virginia

Sunward Steel Buildings, Inc., manufactured and supplied this prefabricated steel building on behalf of a customer in Amissville, Virginia, in July of 2001.

Offering unrivaled strength and durability, the building features top-of-the-line steel construction and functions as an equestrian round track and riding arena on the grounds of Britta Johnston’s Mountain Vista Farm. Johnston, a highly acclaimed international equestrian, uses the facility to teach horseback riding and related skills to students of all ages, drawing upon her training in dressage, show jumping, eventing and vaulting in doing so.

The elite dressage facility and round track are situated within the heart of Virginia’s Rappahannock County, about a half hour outside the entrance of scenic Shenandoah National Park. In addition to offering riding lessons and training opportunities, Johnston operates clinics out of this facility and other locations and runs six- and 12-month internship programs for equestrian enthusiasts looking to become professionals.
