Die Lamas und Alpakas – Freundliche Begleiter mit Charakter

- Lamas sind größer als Alpakas und wurden historisch als Lastentiere genutzt. Sie sind neugierig, aber dennoch ruhig und menschenfreundlich.
- Alpakas sind kleiner und haben eine weichere Wolle, die für ihre außergewöhnliche Qualität bekannt ist. Sie sind oft etwas schüchterner als Lamas, aber genauso liebevoll.
- Beide Tiere sind bekannt für ihre Fähigkeit, sich mit Menschen zu verbinden, was sie zu idealen Begleitern für tiergestützte Aktivitäten macht.

Viele Besucher berichten, dass sie sich durch die sanfte und ruhige Art der Tiere entspannter und glücklicher fühlen. Die Interaktion mit den Lamas und Alpakas hat nachweislich einen positiven Einfluss auf das Wohlbefinden und wird oft als therapeutische Erfahrung beschrieben.

Had an absolutely lovely trek with black rock llamas - Dexter and Harley to be precise! Dexter is apparently the leader of the herd, and their agility trained llama and Harley, a young but well behaved and sweet 3 year old. Sophie, the instructor, was incredibly cheerful, friendly and welcoming, and went through everything clearly. She accompanied us on our trek, let us stop for photos, and chatted with us wonderfully, answering all our questions and queries, and about our holiday in general. The agility course was great fun, she let us have multiple turns and took great photos and videos for us. All in all, a great day out and great customer service!

I booked on this experience fairly last minute as the weather wasn't great but it has been my favourite thing to do. Sophie was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful, she answered all our questions and made it really fun. You are met at the front gate by her and drive to the parking area then walk in to where the llamas are waiting. In our group there was a family of 4, a family of 3 and myself, and we had 5 llamas to walk between us. Sophie taught us about the llamas and how to walk them and look after them. You can stroke their necks which are really soft and they have beautiful eyes! Children under the age of 7 aren't meant to be there but there was a 7 year old on our trek and he did really well. The llamas have head harnesses and leads and you can guide them fairly easily. My llama was called Boris and he just seemed to want to stop and eat every few steps but he was friendly and so soft. The outside of the centre is beautiful and you trek through the woodland as a group. Once you return to the centre after about 40 minutes walking you get to feed your llama from your hands and then have a go at llama agility! I can't recommend this experience enough, something very different from the norm and even if you're alone it's fun. Wear decent shoes if you're trekking as the path is uneven and steep at various points and it is quite windy up there. There's a shelter where we stood for a while but I didn't see any toilets so best to go before you arrive. The postcode takes you to the entrance to the site which is well signed.

We had such a great visit and stroll with the llamas. We had a trek with Boris who was fun and feisty and a cuddle with big softy Dexter. All of the llamas are well loved and very well looked after. Luckily the weather was kind to us and the llama agility was hilarious. 😃thank you for such a fun time and we have great photos too.

Brilliant walk with the Llamas. I hope the lady will forgive me but I cant remember her name. However she is very knowledgeable and its clear that the animals love her. Great day out!

Visited Blackrock Llamas on 13/06/2024 and what an experience. We learnt all about the history of the llamas, their habitat and a whole lot more. Sophie who looks after the llamas (20 of them) is inspirational. Sophie walked in the trek while we walked Panda, a 4 year old baby, a gorgeous smaller llama. The trek took about 40 minutes, then it was back to base, where we fed Panda. Dexter who is the leader of the llamas, provided us with loads of fun. 1 by 1 we took him over an agility course. Such a great time and value for money. Will visit again 🥰🥰

I went with my wife and two grandchildren, aged 8 and 10. We all had an excellent trip made all the better by Sophie, a friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide. The only reason I haven't given five stars is because of the lack of any toilet facilities. Not even a porta loo. Come on owners , get this sorted. You're letting Sophie down.

Visited in March with my family and had a fantastic time! We found all the llama information really interesting. The trek was great despite poor weather. We walked Dexter and Panda, who were really well behaved and are just amazing. I even had kisses from Panda. I would recommend this experience, and would love to do it again!

We had the best time here. Sophie was an incredible guide. I would recommend to anyone, worth every single penny! My children (11 and 12) loved it too. The Llama's are so well behaved and such a beautiful animal, we learnt so much about them and we now have a new favourite animal! We did Zipworld on the same day and the whole family thought this was the better activity!

Llamas are fun but word of warning they really don't have any facilities no toilets at all so go before the experience. You sit in a field on a bench

My fiancé and I visited this site last week. The host we had (sorry I cant remember her name!) was so lovely and really informative of the llamas. We done a walk with Antonio the llama and it was amazing! The walk is not that long but some parts are a bit rough so be careful! After the walk we done some agility with Casper the llama which I had no idea about so it was a lovely touch! At the end you can get photos with them all and they all are just so gorgeous. I would 100% recommend this place to anybody.

We went to black rock llamas on 15th June, it was the best experience we’ve ever done. I am so sorry i can’t remember the trek leader but she was so lovely, so nice kind and patient with us and the llamas! So knowledgeable i learnt so much about these beautiful and wonderful creatures. We trekked with Antonio and he was so funny, grunted the whole time and such a character, really made my day and i’ll always remember him. If you are apprehensive or not sure if this is for you, it is 100% worth it, well worth the money and I will always recommend you to anyone visiting wales!

Absolutely enjoyed this one of a kind experience. A great activity if you’re on holiday. Our guide was super kind and helpful and really good at her job. The price was worth it as well- it includes the trek, feeding the llamas and an agility course with a 2x guiness world record champion Llama. Would highly recommend

We went last week and enjoyed walking the lama's , it's a beautiful setting and Sophie was very knowledgeable on all aspects of the lamas,We got to walk them then do a little jump with them and feed them,A fantastic way to spend a couple of hours.

Great fun taking the Llamas on a short trek and then running the Llama agility course.

Amazing experience. Our group was led by Lauren. We phoned an hour before as we were expecting to be 10 minutes late (got there 5 minutes late in the end) and they were very friendly and said just get there as fast as we could. The trek itself was good, only a short walk with some uphill/rock parts. Most people should be able to manage the walk. You are holding onto the llama the whole time so best not to do this if you need a walking stick or other walking aid. We then got to feed the llamas before doing agility exercises. Lots of photo opportunities, and plenty of time to bond with the llama. We were very lucky and got Panda, the youngest of the four who was very cute. Training was simple and easy to remember. So much fun and would love to do again if we ever got the chance. 100% recommend if visiting the local area.

Had a brilliant experience on the llama trek! There were plenty of opportunities for photos, we got to feed them and do some agility too. The guide, I think her name was Laura, was incredibly friendly and helpful, and the walk was lovely and picturesque. A sat nav or maps won’t take you right to the place! Once you get into Porthmadog town, if you turn up the road between the post office and factory shop you’ll need to carry on straight up that road for a short while. You’ll go up one hill, come back down again slightly, and once you reach the second hilly part of the road, you’ll see some wooden gates and the llamas roaming on your right hand side. Would thoroughly recommend for animal lovers.

Visited here July 28 2022 with my 8 year old nephew,. What an amazing experience, so lovely to hear about the llamas from the leader,. He took time , there was no rushing round waiting for the next party, so relaxed. We trekked with Casper, Guinness works record holder no less😁. My nephew thoroughly enjoyed it too. 🤗 Wonderful couple of hours including the trek itself, photos which the leader very kindly took each member's phones to take their pictures with the llamas, then trek back to feed them, then Casper showed his talents on the assault course before another set of photos if you wanted to. Amazing afternoon. Thank you xx

An excellent experience. Staff were lovely and knowledgeable and the llamas were great too. Very chilled out and fun to walk. The walk was just long enough and was followed by photo ops, a chance to feed the llamas and even some llama agility! The nearby town of Portmadog has great shops and Welsh history. If you're in the area you owe it to yourself to give this a try and have a unique experience 😁👍
