That depends on the breed. Arabian horses are famed for competing in endurance races in the desert, and can travel for a very long time. Quarter Horses, however, are bred to run a quarter of a mile. they can go farther than that, but there breed is designed to go that distance.
It depends on the horse.
Closest I have is close to 60 miles, which online elsewhere said is for a horse.
73.118 miles per day.
Most likely the most they could go was between 10-15 miles a day. If you were to travel by horse 30 miles it would take you 2 days.
I can ride a horse 5 hours in a day.
Rumor has it that your heart goes as fast as a horse. but who knows since my legs have more miles that your car!!

turkeys cover several miles every day,if chased they would not run far before flying away.
It obviously depends on the horse.

The amount of miles traveled will depend on the speed of the horse, the weight of the carriage, the terrain that is being covered, the weather, and how often the horse and people need to stop to eat and use the restroom. Typically a horses best travelling gait is the trot, a trot can average 4 to 8 mph in a none racing breed.So if all the factors are in your favor, flat terrain, light people, carriage, and belongings you should be able to cover roughly 16 to 32 miles in a day once you factor in an 8 hour period to sleep, and roughly four hours for taking breaks, using the bathroom, eating, and drinking (both people and the horse).
Horses have been the tried and true method of traveling in the days before cars, alongside of oxen and mules. When traveling long distances on a horse, the standard was to have a horse breed and trained for such a purpose and be within the proper age to travel (not to young, not to old). When these conditions were met, the average is true: At a good trot gait intermixed with slower 'resting' pace, while traveling in good conditions on good terrain, a horse could travel for 8 hours (with frequent rests) at around an average of between 3 mph (walk) to 8 mph (trot). Many would consider 25-30 miles in a day a successful day of travel. If conditions are PERFECT and the horse is well rested, there have been days where a horse can exceed 60 miles of travel.
