North Coast Alpacas

A small alpaca trekking farm on the hills above the North Coast, where families can walk the animals along a scenic path, feed them and get up close to their soft fleece. The herd is small and friendly, so groups stay manageable and younger children can meet the animals at their own pace. Alongside the standard trek there is a picnic option with tables overlooking the mountains, sea and coastline, and a longer sunset walk for more adventurous walkers. The owners talk visitors through how alpacas behave and where they come from, which suits curious children as well as adults. Because the experiences are timed sessions, it is best to book ahead and check arrangements before setting out, especially in wet or windy weather on the exposed hillside.
