Press the Action (A) button on the controller of whatever Nintendo console you’re using, and Link will get up and sit on the saddle of Epona. , Once your character’s sitting on the saddle, press the directional arrow buttons of your controller to start moving.
Epona will move and take you to any direction that you want to go.
Just remember that Epona is not a car and will have trouble backing up and moving around tight corners.
