One of the best parts about the Olympics can be the creativity and variety found in the arenas and courses. For the 2024 equestrian cross-country course, designer Pierre Le Goupil took inspiration from the features and grounds of the Palace of Versailles, creating 28 decorative obstacles—including this fence shaped like a stag’s head, with antlers reaching up more than 23 feet (7 meters) on either side.

Here, Team Australia’s Kevin McNab, riding the horse Don Quidam, clears the hurdle during the equestrian cross-country leg on day two of the 2024 Olympic Games at Chateau de Versailles in Versailles, France.
