There are a lot of great long distance trails that are available for 
equestrian use.  The people at the Continental Divide trail sent me info on 
all of the areas that are available to ride on, this trail goes from Canada 
to Mexico:  http://www.cdtrail.org/map.html    There are some sections 
where horses are not allowed, or it would be very difficult due to lack of 
parking/camping.

Awhile ago I found this website.  It is the diary of a woman who rode the 
Pacific Crest Trail in 1985.  http://members.tripod.com/~SWadeHorse/   The 
map shows the trail going from Canada to Mexico.

I think the link to the PCT has already been posted. Another great trail is 
the Tahoe Rim Trail:  http://www.tahoerimtrail.org/ You can ride around 
Lake Tahoe (literally).  I think this is probably a contender for one of 
the most beautiful trails that I have ever ridden on.

And, this page has links to many other trails:

sure to check and make sure horses are allowed.

Probably the most famous long distance horse trail is the Pony Express 
trail:  http://www.xphomestation.com/frm-history.html   Parts of it 
probably go over some of the Tahoe Rim Trail, possibly the Western States 
Trail, and further east the Oregon Trail and Mormon 
Trail.   http://www.octa-trails.org/home.asp
