Llama Trekking on the Isle of wight
Llamas on the Isle of Wight
The Isle of Wight is England’s largest offshore Island and one of the smallest counties. Nearly half the Island is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, comprising of picturesque downland, woodland and beautiful sandy beaches. With Quinta da Llama you will be able to leave the car behind and explore some of the many bridleways criss-crossing the Island. You will discover beautiful views, hidden gems and walk in the steps of dinosaurs while leading your very own llama. A holiday on the Isle of Wight isn’t complete without a llama trek.
About Llamas
Llamas are bred for trekking, and our llamas come from bloodlines that have always been around people, and will happily walk beside you, peacefully accepting your commands without any fuss. You can’t ride llamas but they will carry your pack whilst you enjoy your trek. During your trek you will get to learn all about these intriguing animals. Our walks are a relaxed, enjoyable experience, suitable for anyone over the age of ten but accompanied younger ones are welcome. You can even dress up in traditional Peruvian costumes!
You should be reasonably fit as you’ll need to be capable of walking for up to an hour at a steady pace on uneven ground. Walking shoes or wellies are sensible.
You will need to pre-book your trek with us and arrive promptly at your appointed time. Upon arrival you will be introduced to these unique and gentle animals and shown how easy it is to handle them. After a talk about llamas and how to handle your new walking companion you will be invited to give them a brush. Not only does it help you get acquainted but it also ensures they are looking their best on the day.

Testimonials
We wanted something very special to do with our children during a visit to the wonderful Isle of Wight. Rosa and Simon arranged a Llama trek in Shalfleet Village. The whole experience was amazing, we all learned so much about these fantastic animals as well as seeing historic sites and amazing views of the Solent. The children are still talking about it.
