Manege is a French word that refers to an enclosed space for horse riding and training. Although manege is the original term, there are many synonyms that can be used depending on the country and language. In English, manege is often substituted by "arena," "riding ground," "riding hall," or "equestrian center." German speakers may use "Reithalle" or "Reitplatz," while Spanish speakers may use "picadero" or "pista de equitación." Italian speakers commonly use "maneggio" and Portuguese speakers say "manege" as well. In any case, the meaning remains the same, as these words all refer to a space for horseback riding and training.
