Horses are essential in traveling quickly around Hyrule in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. While horses were also in Breath of the Wild, the newer entry to the beloved franchise introduced a reward system tied to your faithful companion. This reward system is called Pony Points, and it includes helpful accessories and nice-looking cosmetics for your horse! This guide will cover all Pony Points rewards in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom.

| 55 | Sleepover Ticket x5 | Vouchers for a regular stable bed. |
| 60 | Endura Carrot x3 | This medicinal plant will increase stamina beyond the limit when cooked into a dish. |
Of all the rewards, I suggest saving up and going for the additional horse registration and 50% off on all stable fees. Some prices are high in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, so to have a Stable that is 50% off could save you a lot of Rupees — allowing you to spend them elsewhere. As for the additional horse registration, this is a good reward considering each horse has its own set of stats, and you never know if you’ll find a rare one in the future that you need to register.

How to Earn Pony Points in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
Three ways to earn Pony Points in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom exist. First, you can earn Pony Points by sleeping in a stables bed — either a regular bed or a Malayna bed. Second, registering horses at Stables will earn you Pony Points. Lastly, Finding Stables will earn you Pony Points as well. Below is the amount of Pony Points you receive for each activity.
- Sleep at Stables – 1 Pony Point

Fastest Way to Get Pony Points
Pony Points aren’t the most important thing to acquire at the beginning of the game. Players can put it on the back burner for some time, but as you open up the map, you’ll realize that the rewards will come in handy regarding exploration. When you are ready to go Pony Point farming, follow my suggestion below.
From my gameplay experience, I have noticed that Stables are in almost every region. So, to get Pony Points at a quick rate, I recommend heading towards Skyview Towers first to activate them and then using your Purah Pad to mark Stables in the distance when you are shot out of the tower. Then, when you are at the Stable, talk to the owner and sleep in the bed. This method led me to quickly get a substantial amount of Pony Points, considering each new Stable you visit grants you a point — and then sleeping in a bed rewards you with another point.
