Friesian horses, known for their graceful appearance and flowing manes and tails, typically range in height from about 15 to 17 hands (60 to 68 inches or 152 to 173 cm) at the withers.
While they are not known for being exceptionally tall compared to some draft breeds like the Shire or Clydesdale, there are occasionally individuals within the breed that may stand taller than average due to genetic variation.
However, it's important to note that Friesians are not typically bred to be giants like some draft breeds.
Their beauty lies more in their elegant build, shiny black coat, and luxurious mane and tail.
