• Other Experiences

Start off your experience with a pre-briefing on safety and an introduction to Udderly Ridiculous's beautiful herd of alpacas. Participants will be paired with an alpaca (one alpaca per two people), harness them up and set off on a leisurely country walk.

Alpacas are one of the most peaceful, ‘soft to the touch’ animals you could hope to meet! Don’t forget to bring your camera or phone as alpaca’s love to photobomb selfies. No encounter is complete without treats – both for you and your new alpaca bestie!

End your experience at the Farm Store and learn a bit about how alpaca fiber becomes yarn, while sipping a hot beverage.

Can I touch the alpacas?

You will be able to get pictures with the alpacas during the experience. You will be able to hand feed the alpacas and if they allow you to, you will be able to pet them. Please respect that alpacas are nervous creatures, and do not like to be grabbed at. If you are calm they will come to you and may allow you to pet their necks and shoulders. 

Will the alpacas spit at me?

Alpacas are anxious creatures and get upset and jumpy if someone is running, jumping or making quick movements/swinging their arms around etc. These are things kids naturally do, but the alpacas get frightened and it makes the walk stressful for them and the people walking them. You may have a child over 10 that is naturally more active - we don't recommend this experience for them. If our alpacas have a bad experience with someone they may decide they never want to walk again. Our alpacas wellbeing is our top priority. 

Why can't children under 14 go on the walks?

Firstly this is for insurance reasons. Secondly, if an alpaca becomes frightened during the walk for whatever reason the person walking needs to remain calm and in control of the alpaca and not all young adults are able to do this. We are committed to both animal welfare and the guest experience, providing safer, more enjoyable experiences for everyone.
