Where we will trek...

per person
You will take your alpaca on a 2.5 mile trail straight from the farm onto a moorland track in Dartmoor National Park. We follow a stony bridleway out towards Brentor Church which sits high on top of an extinct volcanic cone. With far reaching views in every direction, you get to gaze at Great Links, Brat and Alms Tor on the return (if you can take your eyes off of your furry pal!). We stop for 'pea pitstops' along the way where you will get to feed your alpaca pal some of his favourite treats (dried peas) and take some photographs.
The terrain
Our path is gently undulating and is a typical moorland track so expect uneven terrain with some significant puddles along the way - your alpaca loves to splash in these and cool their feet but as we walk at 'alpaca pace', the trek is suitable for most fitness levels.
Wild Dartmoor ponies, Highland Cattle and various sheep breeds add colour and interest to the experience as well as the changing colours of the flora across the seasons - this is truly a magical place whatever month you choose (from swathes of yellow gorse to sparkling frosts and misty mornings!).
“We had a great time with Helen and her boys. Fulfilled my wish to kiss an Alpaca 😊 Helen was very thoughtful and gave us a delightful insight into these gorgeous animals, as well as meeting her pet sheep. Would thoroughly recommend a visit. Can’t wait to have a walk in the spring with you”
