can horses go down stairs
Quick Answer
Horses generally do not go down stairs due to their physical structure and balance needs, but they can ascend steep, narrow, and winding paths with caution. Some specialized passages or arrangements may allow horses to be led carefully in such terrains, though going down stairs is uncommon.
Detailed Answer
According to the context from Jain literature, horses are used to ascend steep and narrow mountain passes, such as the Aṇādara pass, where the road is winding and steep, indicating that horses can manage difficult upward paths. However, there is no direct reference to horses going down stairs, which is typically difficult for horses due to their anatomy and balance requirements.
