Alpakkatur på Verdens Ende

The alpacas are all different, they have unique personalities and of course have their own names! You will get to hike in the beautiful nature with your own alpaca on a leash! This means that participants go on a guided tour with alpacas in real alpaca halter with a rental rope! The alpacas Sondre, Ivar and Aune are ready to take you on a trip! Alpacas are strongly attached to their flock, they do not like to be separated. Because of this, the stable always take their entire "little" flock on trips. Alpacas are curious and friendly animals, even in encounters with us humans. The participants will learn about the alpacas and the basics of handling them. Everyone can also take part in feeding the alpacas with their own special feed.

The tour takes about 1 hour. It can vary a little how long the alpacas spend on the trip, so you have to reckon that it can take a little longer or a little shorter time than scheduled. Stall Verdens Ende can adapt the trip to the participants' needs, for example by just walking on the paved road, or at a slow pace. Dress for the weather, as this takes place outdoors! The stable's reception will be open. Snacks and drinks are sold here, as well as simple food such as waffles and sausages.
