I weigh 298lbs. I am definitely trying to lose weight! I want to start horse riding but I’m scared I’ll kill a horse by sitting on it. Also, I’d be so embarrassed if I went there and they weighed me and said "sorry, you can’t ride the horse".
Do you they weigh you when you go horse riding?
What is the average weigh limits?
theres no official weight limit for riding a horse, usually they will set you up with a horse that is more tolerant to being ridden by a person with more weight than normal, a horse is a very strong animal its not like a dog, you will be fine, good luck

I know a women who definetly weighs more than you, and she rides a big draft horse. She’s quite an amazing rider.
I would say if you are interested in riding to go to a English stable instead of Western as Western horses are quite often pretty small.
