Two or three feet are always on the ground at the same time; the horse steps from one leg to the other and there is no moment of suspension.

The walk is the most important gait of the horse, because this gait stresses/exhausts the horse the least, hence he endures in it longer. The horse is setting down all four legs in sequel and separated time intervals; hence we can hear four hoof-beats. The legs follow in this sequence: right hind – right front, left hind – left front etc. hence the movement is lateral with four separated shift/steps of the legs (four hoof beats). The numeric sequence in regular walk, the number 1 being the right hind leg.(4) (2) (3) (1)
