Answer:yes, you can ride a horse without a saddle as well as without a bridle too. called bareback and its really fun, especially swimming with your horse!

I agree,I loved swimming with some of my horses.But be careful..not all horses can

swim!!
Most definitely! It is much more difficult to keep your balance but can be done. Instead of reins you can hold on t the horse's mane. He won't mind one bit.

Bareback will also lead to better communication with body signals.

With a saddle as horses can have boney backs.The stirrups also give you somewhere to rest your feet so your legs don't get tired.

I personally find it more comfy, but it depends on the horse really. My horse has a boney back,but I still find it more comfortable,plus riding bareback builds up your balance and seat. It can also be better for the horses backs,as my horse has high withers,and we've found the saddle hurts him slightly, so he's better behaved bareback, but once again,it does depend on the horse.

Yes. Native Americans (American Indians) rode horses bareback as many others did and still do.

Haha, yes you can ride a horse without a saddle on the road. However, I don't advise it if you do not have a calm horse.
