An assist step (60) for a stirrup (30) associated with a saddle (32) wherein the step is secured to or formed integrally with an outer side element (38) of the stirrup, which is pivotally mounted at a base (34) of the stirrup such that when pivoted downwardly relative to the base, the step provides a platform for assisting a rider in mounting a saddle. The outer side element also functions as a safety breakaway portion for the stirrup to permit relea se of a rider's foot in the event of a rider falls from the saddle.
