Family Lama and Alpaca Trekking

Llama and alpaca trekking is a special experience for the whole family. It is offered for at least two adults and three children, with additional participants easily bookable. In Meikirch near Bern, an unforgettable outdoor adventure awaits, where each family member has the chance to lead their own animal. This creates a unique connection between humans and animals. During the trek, at least two animals are always led. The friendly and curious llamas and alpacas create a relaxed atmosphere and help you leave everyday stress behind. The provider suggests suitable walking routes and especially recommends a duration of 1 to 4 hours for beginners. The animals are very easygoing, so no special prior knowledge is needed to walk with them. It’s an experience that beautifully combines nature and animal encounters.

• An alpaca walk is more of a leisurely activity – bring some time and plan a not too ambitious route.
• Alpacas are generally not cuddly or riding animals, but they can be stroked. Don’t push the animals and keep a respectful distance.
• Alpacas generally don’t like dogs: it’s better to leave your four-legged friend at home or keep it on a lead.
• Alpacas are herd animals. They are not rented out individually. At least two animals should walk together.
• The alpaca walk usually takes place without a guide. However, someone is happy to accompany you for the first few steps.
• Before you start, you will receive a short instruction.
