Once you’ve tamed a horse in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, you’ll want to start getting the most out of the Stables And pony stitches.
Stables work the same way as in Breath of the Wild, but Pony Points are new to tears of the kingdom – think of them as loyalty points that can be redeemed for free horse items.
In this guide we will remember how stables workthen discover the new Pony Point system.

Stables in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
Stables act as a resting place for Link, an area to pick up side quests, buy items, and as a way to register your tamed horses.
Registering a horse means you can give it a name, provide it with a saddle, and most importantly, you can pick up that horse whenever you want by visiting one of the stables scattered around Hyrule.
To register horses in Tears of the Kingdom stables, you must approach and target a stablemaster with ‘ZL’, then speak with him and choose ‘Save a Horse’. This will show you the strength, speed, stamina, pull, and temperament stats for that particular horse.
Once you are sure this horse is for you, press “Yes” to save it. Keep in mind that there are limited spaces shared between all stables, and once this limit is reached you will need to get rid of one of your other horses in order to claim a new one.
Your first horse registration is free, but it costs 20 rupees to register a new horse each time after that.
If there is a Breath of the Wild save file on your Nintendo Switch, the horses you have on that save will already be saved in the Tears of the Kingdom stables.
There’s a bit more incentive to keep registering horses even if you’re happy with your mounts in TOTK, as you can earn pony points for doing so.
Pony points in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
While taming and stables work much the same as in Breath of the Wild, Pony Points are new to Tears of the Kingdom, rewarding you for more frequent use of stables.
To get Pony Points, you must first speak to a stablemaster, who will then give you a membership card.
Once you have the Pony Points card, you will receive points for things like stable accommodation and registering new horses. Basically, each time you use a service in a stable, another point will be added to your card. Once you have enough points, you can then use the ledger counter at a stable to claim your rewards.
Each reward is tied to horses, with Pony Points rewards ranging from a towing harness to unlocking the mysterious Malanya bed in the stables, where you can receive a mystical message from a horse god.
Below are the rewards we’ve unlocked so far and the points needed to earn them:
- 3 tips – Tow harness
- 5 points
- 7 points – Sleep in a Malanya bed
- 10 dots – Register an additional horse
So keep using stable services if you want to rack up those points and get more rewards!
Plus, you can check your Pony Points Card if you ever want to quickly know how many points you need to unlock the next reward.
I wish you the best on your journey through Hyrule! And if you need more help, be sure to check out our Tears of the Kingdom walkthrough.
