A Tennessee walker is a gaited horse breed that was developed in the Southern United States, particularly in Tennessee, in the late 19th century. They are known for their unique and smooth gait, called the "running walk," which is achieved through a combination of genetics and training. This gait is both comfortable and efficient, making the Tennessee Walker a popular choice for long-distance trail riding. Tennessee Walkers come in a variety of colors but are most commonly seen in black, chestnut, and bay. They are typically between 14 and 17 hands tall and weigh between 900 and 1,200 pounds. Known for their calm and gentle nature, Tennessee Walkers are a popular choice for riders of all experience levels, including those with physical limitations. They are often used for pleasure riding, showing, and endurance riding, and are a beloved and iconic breed of the American South.
