Not knowing if you mean the age of the horse or the riders age. Both will be answered here. A rider can ride until physically unable to do so, there is no age limit. As long as a horse is healthy and physically able to bare weight, it can be ridden.
Well, you don't really have to stop at a certain age. But maybe when your old and can barely walk. But I say if the horse is fine, you can ride. So when ever you feel like stopping is the age.

∙ 14y agoWhen a horse is too old to ride really depends on the horse. If it [the horse] is in good condition, it can ride up to age thirty-three. However, if the horse has Arthritis or sore joints, it shouldn't ride until it gets better. Sometimes a horse just doesn't ride anymore when it gets sore joints or arthritis (or both!).
