Love the idea of an Alpaca Walk, but do not have time for the full experience? Our Mini Alpaca Walk is the perfect way to enjoy a gentle stroll with one of our fluffy friends without committing to the longer route.
It is still a real alpaca experience: you meet the herd, learn the basics from our team and head out for a shorter countryside walk at alpaca pace.

Questions, answered
Can children attend?+
Yes, children are welcome, but the following ratios apply: 0–4 years: Must be carried in a suitable carrier. 0–9 years: 1 adult required for every child. 10–15 years: 1 adult required for every 2 children.
Is this different from the full alpaca walk?+
Yes. It is a shorter 30 minute version, created for visitors who want a lighter alpaca experience.
Accessibility+
This experience takes place on farm tracks which can be rough, uneven, bumpy and muddy. Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate wheelchairs, pushchairs or mobility aids. All walks require a reasonable level of physical fitness and mobility.
What if it rains?+
We walk in almost all weather — alpacas don't mind a drizzle. Heavy storms or high winds may mean we reschedule.
Do they spit?+
Rarely at humans. Ours are well socialised — spitting is mostly reserved for arguments with each other at dinner time.
Can we just do the afternoon tea without the walk?+
Yes — Pre booked afternoon tea is available at the Chilli Bean Cafe.
