Point-to-point is a type of horse race where competitors ride across open countryside rather than on a track. The race typically involves a set starting and finishing point, with riders navigating through natural obstacles like fences, ditches, and hills. It is often held in rural areas and can be a test of both the rider's skill and the horse's stamina and agility. These races have their origins in traditional hunting and have become a popular form of amateur horse racing.
