We are currently only running Countryside Treks for up to four people. For larger groups we recommend our Animal Encounters which include interactions with our llamas & alpacas.
This is partly an off road trail but still easy walking and suitable for off road buggies but unsuitable for normal prams or wheelchairs.
A proper “countryside walk,” it takes in the superb views of the Lake District fells and the North Pennines and has some easy gradients and is good under foot.
Lasts around 90-100 minutes.
Your booking date and time will be confirmed via email.

Mini Llama Trek
This is a one hour walking with llamas experience that is suitable for the whole family from Tots to Grans.
It is easy walking right from the site and gets you up close and personal with our friendly llamas. All our treks with the exception of a private trek for two people are based on sharing your experience with your llama with your partner so you can chat and enjoy the time together and enable you to take photos of each other whilst trekking or support a younger or more nervous/less-able person with the experience. This Magical experience is one you will never forget and is led by our experienced guides who can give you a fascinating insight into the world of llamas.
PLEASE NOTE: We are currently only running Llama Treks for up to four people. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. For larger groups we recommend booking one of our Animal Encounter sessions which still gives you the chance to get up close with our llamas and alpacas, including a short walk round the grounds, feeding and photo opportunities.
