Alpaca walks

Capel Manor Gardens

30 minutes

Minimum age 8

Overview

Alpaca walking is great fun and a fantastic experience for all animal-lovers. Your day will begin with our zookeeper giving a quick health and safety briefing. You will then learn some fun alpaca facts before being introduced to your very own furry friend!

The route takes you round our impressive 30-acre estate, with plenty of photo opportunities. At the end of the walk you will be able to feed your new four-legged friend a treat as a thank you, then explore our Gardens at your leisure. Enjoy some refreshments at our café, and meet many more animals at our mini zoo.

Alpacas are naturally inquisitive and gentle animals, each with their own unique personality. All of our herd are halter-trained, allowing an enjoyable experience for both you and your alpaca.
