And now that you have the Towing Harness in your possession, it’s time to put it to good use. With any of your tamed horses, summon them from the Stable, then speak with the Stable NPC and choose the Customize Horse option. This will allow you to attach the Towing Harness to the horse itself.

Once the Harness has been attached, you can then use Link’s Ultrahand ability to attach a wagon to the Harness itself, then ride your horse to start pulling the wagon around. This can be great for various quests, or if you just want to see how much stuff you can transport around the world on horseback.

Do note, however, that there are some horses you cannot attach the Towing Harness to. Some of the legendary horses are too large for it, and can only be ridden on solo.

That’s all you need to know about how to get and use the Towing Harness in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. For more, here’s an explainer on whether your horse can die in the game. Otherwise, be sure to search for Twinfinite for more tips and information on the game.
