trail horse
Horse for paths
A trail horse is a horse suited for recreational riding on trails and paths rather than arena work, showing, or racing.
Trail horses are valued for calm temperament, sure-footedness on uneven terrain, and steady endurance over long distances: She wanted a reliable trail horse for mountain riding.
The term also describes horses used in guided trail rides at ranches and parks.
