Legokjawa Racecourse


Legokjawa Racecourse is a racecourse located in Pangandaran Regency, West Java, Indonesia. This racecourse is unique because it has a racing track with a panoramic view of the open sea of the Indian Ocean, making it the only horse racing track in Indonesia that has such a view.
Built in the early 2000s, Legokjawa frequently hosts national and regional horse racing championships, including being the location for the 2016 West Java PON XIX and major events such as the Merdeka Cup.

History

Construction of Legokjawa initially began in the early 2000s. However, extensive construction and significant upgrades to key facilities occurred in the lead-up to Legokjawa's appointment as host of the equestrian competition at the 19th West Java National Games in 2016. Construction of the horse stables at the Legokjawa began around May 2016.

Physical attributes

Legokjawa covers 18 hectares of land, with a 1,200-meter-long, 16-meter-wide oval track made of full-dirt sand. The racecourse also features a 300-meter straightaway.
