Best Answer

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).
