They can both be good, but mules are smarter and more sure footed as a general rule. If you got a gaited mule, that would probably be the best because they are sure footed, smart andcomfortable to ride for long hours.

^Depends on the horse and the mule. Mules are bred from both horse and donkey so the variables between them can be great. Donkeys are known for being smarter, sure footed, they can kick forward and tend to be stubborn. Any of these traits may follow through, or they maybe more like their horse counterpart. The main advantage I have seen most mules have is the how they can jump. Mules can jump from a stand still straight up where as a horse tends to need speed and distance to jump any great height. So if you are going cross country that could be ideal.
