What is a "sleigh"?
A sleigh is a type of vehicle designed for traveling over snow or ice, often pulled by horses, dogs, or other animals. It typically has runners, which are long, flat strips that slide over the snow or ice instead of wheels, allowing the sleigh to glide smoothly across the surface. Sleighs have been used historically in colder regions for transportation, but they are also popular for recreational purposes, like during winter holidays. They can vary in size, from small, simple designs to larger, more luxurious versions used for longer trips or festive events.
