Hike with llamas or alpacas

Family experiences in Vorarlberg: Hiking with llamas and alpacas in the snow is an experience that features stunning views and excitement for all ages.

Horst Kuster and his llamas live in the best panoramic location on the Bartholomäberg above Schruns in Montafon. Together with hikers, they set off on a two-hour trekking tour in the footsteps of the miners to Kristberg, even in winter. The llamas carry the luggage and accompany them through the snow. Llamero Horst and hiking guide Imelda talk about the landscape, the people and Montafon traditions along the way.

In Gaschurn the “Haus Mair” offers approx. 1.5 hour hikes on leisurely paths through the nearby forest with the three alpacas Rocco, Rio and Lascar.

Birget Knecht from Röns provides therapeutic programmes centred around hiking with llamas and alpacas. She would be happy to organise an individualised tour.

There is a colourful programme around the alpacas with a photo safari, alpaca hiking tour or children’s birthday party.

Alpacas and Llamas are friendly and good-natured beings. They do not spit at people. They are intelligent, curious and affectionate.
