A dog might be man's best friend, but you can't ride one. Better to make friends with a horse!
The basic riding controls are the same as when you're on foot, Your horse can of course jump, slow to a walk, speed up to a canter or gallop which apart from speed affects the radius of turning and, naturally, drains the horse's stamina as well as your own. You can see your horse's stamina, only when mounted, as a green indicator just next to your health indicator.
If you try to push your horse when its stamina is too low, it will throw you. You'll also fall from the saddle if you're seriously wounded (hit by an arrow, for example), or you can be unhorsed by a halberd.
Kingdom Come deliverance Wiki is your guide for all information on weapons, armor, skills, abilities, crafting, mining, fishing, cooking, brewing and walkthroughs. Horses are a type of domestic animal found in Kingdom Come: Deliverance, and are the main means of faster and more efficient travel (barring fast travel). By riding on a horse you also level up your Horsemanship skill.
Your horse is smarter than some people and will stick to the path you're on if you give him his head. Just begin cantering and don't steer him.
In the horse tab you will see your horse's stats, tackle and inventory.
You can call your horse any time by whistling and mount it using But your whistle will also be heard by the people within earshot, which sometimes can be a disadvantage, while on the other hand it can also be a way of distracting attention...
Kingdom Come Deliverance Stealing Horses
Horses don't grow on trees though! It's a costly thing that you can only acquire by buying, stealing or getting as a gift or reward. You can compare you horses stats with those of other horses by holding Henry can only own one horse at a time: if you get a new one, the old horse's inventory will move automatically to the new one.
Once you get your first horse, you'll always have a mount.
Horses are your primary means of transportation in our sprawling world, but you can fight from horseback, as well. War horses can be used as living weapons with special moves and attacks (strafing, running backwards, several different kicks, etc.). Horses also serve as a secondary inventory for the player. We’ll have three types of horses in-game (courser, destrier, rouncey), and each offers different abilities, stats, skills, and perks. Your steed levels up on its own throughout the journey, and even comes with five slots for horse tack.

Concept art
Horses are Henry's primary means of transportation (besides fast travel) and act as secondary inventory but it's also possible to fight from horseback and some horses like War Horses have special moves and attacks that can be utilized as a weapon. Riding horses increase Henry's Horsemanship skill and unlocks new Horsemanship Perks.
Kingdom Come Deliverance Where To Buy Horses
Horses can be categorized into 3 different types:
- Courser
- Destrier
- Rouncey
and each offers different abilities, stats, skills, and perks.
The horse's stamina will drain during a gallop and it will a breather once in a while. if you try to push your horse onto the limit by galopping while its stamina is very low, it will throw you. You'll also fall from the saddle if you're seriously wounded, or get hit by a halberd.
Horses can be acquired as a quest reward (Pebbles can be obtained during the quest The Hunt Begins for free) or need to be bought from Horse Traders. Henry can only own one horse at a time and if you get a new one, the old horse's inventory will automatically be transferred to the new horse. Stolen horses do not remain yours and cannot be called to you.
