When a horse is described as being 16 hands tall, it means that its height measures 16 hands, where one hand equals 4 inches. Therefore, a 16-hand horse stands 64 inches tall at the withers. This measurement is commonly used in the equestrian world to specify a horse's height and helps in categorizing horses for various disciplines and purposes.
