Proper training is essential for both riders and horses. Beginners should take lessons from experienced instruct to learn the fundamentals of riding and horse care. Horses also undergo training to learn commands become accustomed to carrying riders.

Taking care of horses is a significant responsibility. This includes regular exercise, proper feeding, grooming, and regular visits from a veterinarian and a farrier (a specialist who cares for the horse's hooves).

Remember that horse riding requires a level of skill and responsibility, and it is essential to be respectful and compassionate towards the horses involved. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced rider, always prioritize safety and treat the animals with care and kindness.

Responsible horse riding involves ethical considerations, such as ensuring the well-being of the horse, respecting nature and trails, and being mindful of the impact on the environment.
