Enjoy a 90 minute alpaca walking experience around our beautiful farm, hear our alpacas hum to each other
and feel how soft their fleece is. After all the fun of the alpaca walk in the fresh countryside air you will be
more than ready for your authentic 10” wood fired pizza in The Chilli Bean!
Your experience will include a health and safety briefing before demonstrating how to lead your alpaca.
You will then be partnered up with your alpaca chum and your experience will begin with plenty of time for pictures!

Our Alpaca Walk experience is not suitable for children aged 4 and under (and possibly for children aged up to 6) due to a walking requirement of up to 90 minutes, in sometimes rough terrain. All children aged 4 and under must be in a carrier and (or any age that staff are concerned with their ability to complete up to 90 minutes of walking) will not be permitted to attend the experience without a carrier.
MORE INFORMATION
Every paying ticket holder attending the experience must walk with an alpaca. This includes all ages and abilities. We cannot allow spectators on the experience. Make sure you load up on bags of alpaca feed for £1 each,
as the alpacas love their food!
This experience is a physical activity which involves walking up hills and over uneven terrain. You must be capable of walking at a pace that keeps up with the rest of the group without putting a strain on your health so please consider this before attending the experience.
When bringing young children, adults must feel confident that their child can walk the whole distance of this experience. If they cannot, you must bring a sling or a carrier as we cannot authorise pushchairs on our experiences and cannot allow you to carry your child as you must have both hands on the rein of the alpaca at all times (see the Accessibility section in the Terms & Conditions).
If you’re pregnant please be aware that we are a working farm with live animals. We therefore have natural bacteria and parasites which in some circumstances may be harmful to a pregnancy. If you choose to come to our farm or participate in an experience we recommend you do not touch pregnant sheep or lambs and thoroughly wash your hands after being around any of our other animals, especially before consuming food.
