Long-lasting Equine Mud Management

As the most affordable manufactured equine mud management system for fixing serious mud issues and preventing further damage to paddock footing, Lighthoof can have your horses standing on solid ground right away and preserves and protects your gravel investment.

The innovative cellular confinement system of the Lighthoof mud management panels holds gravel in place to prevent the plunger effect of the hooves which is what causes deep mud and unstable ground in high-traffic horse areas.

Easy to Install Over Your Existing Paddock Surface

The flexible panels expand to lay right over your existing paddock surface and fill with gravel to create a new reinforced base for your horses.

Once gravel is compacted into the cells, the Lighthoof panels will be ready to support hoof or vehicle traffic and you can say goodbye to mud forever.

Because the panels have some flexibility to them, they will conform gently to your terrain, laying nicely over tree roots, lumps or rocks, and supporting shallow drainage features to guide water away from your shelters or gates. This flexibility greatly reduces the site prep needed for a successful installation, saving huge amounts of time and money.

A Safe, Non-slip Mud Management Product

Because the cells are soft and flexible, they won’t become slippery if exposed or risk separating and sticking up a brittle edge to harm your horse. The textured, gravel-filled cells create a surface with excellent traction and stability. If desired, you can top your Lighthoof base with several inches of any footing product such as sand, bark or additional gravel.

Strong Enough for Trucks and Tractors

Adapted from a US army invention that supported tanks, properly filled and compacted Lighthoof is designed to hold heavy equipment loads as well as hoof traffic. This makes it easy to install in muddy or hard to reach areas because you can drive over each panel you’ve laid down with your tractor or truck to reach the next section without sinking into the mud.
