Hey there, did you know that horses can cover a distance of 32 miles in just 8 hours while walking? But, let’s be honest, not all horses would love being in a saddle for that long. So, it’s always good to keep in mind the horse’s gait and what they’re comfortable with.

One thing to keep in mind is the weather. Horses lose a lot of electrolytes when they sweat, so it’s important to make stops for food and water to replenish those lost electrolytes. Warm weather makes horses sweat more, while cool weather makes the sweat dry up quickly, making it difficult to observe. If your horse refuses food when you stop to eat, it’s a sign that it’s tired and needs a break. Constant stops will reduce the amount of time spent riding.

Note: These distances are based on optimal conditions and may vary depending on factors such as terrain, weather, and the horse’s health and fitness.1) Rewrite:
