trail horse camping is this a thing? I haven't heard of

Sure is something you can do. Do it somewhere that you're allowed to though. In Australia there are a number of routes in the Alpine National Park that are fine, and many that are off limits.

Horses can have a serious degrading effect on the environment so keep to the trails and where you're allowed to be.

I went when I was a kid, although it wasn't like that. We'd come back to the same campsite every night after trail riding all day.

You couldn't travel solo with a horse for more than a day or so without an extra animal just to carry feed. They eat a lot more than you do.

You're not going to find anyplace "off the map" that you can take a horse, either. So that usually means you're stuck with normie campgrounds and trails that you're not allowed to sleep on.

people in california do it all the time. sierra nevada has pack trails all over it.

Mule trains are back-country cancer

Yes it's a thing. Pack trains fuck up the trails pretty badly though...

I was just about to make the same thread. I've seen it done in a National Forest, no clue about the legality of it. It would be so cool to go straight up 19th century for a week.

It's legal on USFS and BLM land, but some high-traffic areas may have limits on group size or grazing to prevent damage from overuse.

This was a pretty sensitive wilderness area. I wouldn't have taken horses in regardless of whether it was allowed.
