So I'm guessing this if for pastures/paddocks that
are smaller and/or don't vary in their terrain at all, e.g. don't have
natural obstacles for the horses to maneuver around/through?

Katrina, in simple terms, it's a 20-40 foot wide track, as
opposed to a large square/rectangular pasture. Putting feeding "stations"
and water troughs in different areas of the track, encourages movement
throughout the day. You can also put some stretches of different types of
footing in order to encourage healthy hooves. I even saw a video online
where the horses had the option of doing a creek crossing onto an "island" as
part of their track (or they could go an alternate route to skip the island
portion). It can be very flexible to the land that you have
available...
