There are 4 gaits (almost) every horse would have

Walk

Trot

Canter

Gallop

There are 2 gaits most horses do not have

Tolt (a gait between a Trot and canter)

Flying pace (a fast running walk)

(most Icelandic horses have these 2 gaits along with the other 4 gaits, only some other breeds may have those 2 special gaits)

(when I said almost in the first line, I meant only a few horses have just three gaits)

What does a walking trail horse mean?

A walking trail horse is simply a horse that you can take on trails at a walking speed. That's the literal meaning of the question; but as a trail rider and author of Basic Training for a Safe Trail Horse I would say that "walking trail horse" refers to a gaited breed of trail horse like the Tennessee Walker. TW's are the most common of walking horses, but there are many other gaited breeds that perform comfortable gaits that can be described as a "walking" gait. Many of these gaits are performed at speeds comparable to the gaits of trotting or cantering in non-gaited breeds.


How do you train your horse to gait?

If you are speaking of gaits like the Fox Trot and Running walk you will need a specific breed of horse as these gaits cannot be taught to ungaited horses. Also the term gaited is not really correct as all horses have gaits, but the term 'easy Gaited' is correct for horses possessing extra gaits and is becoming much more popular a term.
