In this guide, we'll uncover the step-by-step method to mount a horse in Minecraft while also revealing some useful tips to enhance your equestrian adventures!

Step-by-Step Guide to Mounting a Horse

To get on a horse in Minecraft, follow these quick and easy steps:

1. Locate a horse in your Minecraft world.


2. Ensure you are in survival or creative mode where horses spawn.


3. Approach the horse. You'll notice that as you get close, the horse will appear to be a little skittish.


4. Right-click (or tap the mount button on mobile) the horse. You will find yourself on its back!

Now you’re ready to ride and explore your Minecraft world in style!

Can you control the horse immediately after mounting?

No, initially, the horse will be unmanageable. You need to saddle it to control its movements. To do so, simply open your inventory while mounted and place a saddle in the saddle slot.

Understanding Horse Attributes

Player Tips for Horse Selection

According to an IGN article, some players prefer fast horses for long-distance travels, while others might choose sturdier horses for battles due to their higher health points.

Tips for a Smooth Riding Experience

Once you're mounted, it's essential to know some controls to ensure your ride goes smoothly:

• Use the W, A, S, D keys on your keyboard (or thumbstick on consoles) to steer your horse.


• To make your horse jump, press the spacebar. Charge it for a higher jump!


• Don't forget to feed your horse with apples or hay bales to keep it happy and healthy!

What should I do if my horse won’t jump?

If your horse is not jumping, it could be due to the horse's own jump strength being low. Try obtaining a different horse with better attributes! You can always check the jump height before taming them.
