A family-run Wicklow alpaca farm where visitors walk their own alpaca on guided treks, feed the herd in a paddock and browse an all-alpaca gift shop, about 40 minutes from Dublin city centre.
The signature 2-hour experience: a handling talk, then you're paired with your own alpaca for a roughly 1.25-hour walk at alpaca pace through Wicklow countryside, with hand-feeding and photo stops, finishing with prosecco or juice in the shop. From €40 per person; ages 8 and up (8-9 year olds walk with a paying adult and cannot lead). Closed-toe sturdy shoes required. Book ahead — treks need a minimum number to run and are weather-dependent.
A 45-minute meet-and-greet for families: 30 minutes in the paddock with alpacas and picnic tables, feeding them specialist alpaca feed and taking photos, then 15 minutes in the gift shop. Adults €15, children 2-17 €7.50, under-2s free. No trek involved, and it suits young children and visitors with mobility issues. In summer it runs Wednesday-Sunday at 12:30, 13:30, 14:30 and 15:30.
A child-friendly woodland walk on the farm (part of the Kids Experience and the Halloween pumpkin patch) that also features in the summer events. A gentle add-on for little ones between alpaca time and the gift shop.
An all-alpaca shop stocking handcrafted items made in Peru (soft teddies, slippers, scarves, socks and yarn) plus farm-grown fibre products milled in the UK. Treks and kids' visits end here, and alpaca feed can be bought for €3.
Seven restored farm outbuildings converted into self-catering cottages sleeping 2-7 guests each (26 in total), with BBQs, picnic benches, ponds with ducks and alpacas wandering outside. Book direct from the site.
The Halloween K2Alpacas Pumpkin Patch (a fundraiser for the Down Syndrome Centre) brings a fairy forest, Witches Way, ghoulish games and pick-your-own pumpkins; a Christmas experience runs in December. Separate tickets required.
