Paso Fino

The Paso Fino is a beautiful, naturally-gaited horse with a history dating back many centuries to Spain. The Paso Fino is a mix of the Berber, Spanish Jennet, and Andalusian and was first introduced to the New World in Latin and South America.

The rise of the Paso Fino in the United States began in the 1950s and 1960s, and today, the Paso Fino Horse Association oversees and regulates registered Paso Finos there.

The Paso Fino is the smoothest riding horse in the world with a natural, four beat lateral gait. These horses are extremely versatile and can be used for trail riding, endurance riding, or in the show ring.
