Are these two sentences correct? If so, what is the difference between them?
Anda en caballo. Anda a caballo.
Thanks!

Hola, Dsax,
"Andar a caballo" is the standard way to say "to go horseback riding" or "to ride on horseback".
I have occasionally seen "andar en caballo", but to my knowledge it is not widely used and is not considered to be standard Spanish. It may be a regional thing; there are so many variations in Spanish that some things are accepted in some regions.

I have also seen "montar a caballo"-- is that wrong, or should it only be used for getting on the horse, or is it another acceptable variant?

I agree that this is correct meaning to mount or to ride "horseback riding" - foxluv, Oct 29, 2010
