Are your Sims experiencing difficulty riding horses in The Sims 4? Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered!
Whether it’s a fear, a technical glitch, or something else, let’s try to fix it so that your Sims can enjoy all the equestrian delights the game has to offer.
When you use the Mount option, your Sim typically goes through the animation of getting on the horse, but then suddenly glitches off.
That’s one of the most annoying bugs affecting The Sims 4 Horse Ranch expansion.
Fix: Sims Can’t Ride Horses in The Sims 4 Horse Ranch
Maybe this is not a glitch.
Maybe your Sim is afraid of riding horses. Have them discuss this fear with friends. Additionally, have them walk by their horse’s side first before they attempt to mount.
Sims can’t get on horseback right off the bat. They need to walk alongside the horse on foot, rather than attempting to ride them straight away.
If you’re convinced this is a technical glitch, follow the troubleshooting steps below.
