I have a route I take that is almost 3 miles. I walk trot and lope. I also have a one acre pasture that I work around. Around 8 times is one mile. So we trot 4 laps one way, walk, trot four laps the other way, walk. Lope 3 rounds one way, walk, lope 3 rounds the other way, walk, trot two more rounds one way, walk and then trot two last rounds and cool them out. Gives for a little over 3 miles.

I wish I had hills because we would do hill work too. On the days where it rains or after it rains and he ground is moist and to slick. I just take them on our back roads and go trail riding. Give them something different to do. I walk only because its dirt roads, but I normally ride 3 to 5 miles trail riding.
