OUR ANIMALS

The llamas are just the beginning

Eight llamas, three mares, two ponies, four goats, six rabbits and the guinea pigs — a family raised free across the ranch's 92,000 m².

THE FEEDING RITUAL

Every morning, at 9 am

The ranch's signature: each morning, guests feed the animals alongside the team that cares for them — included in the price of your stay.

They are wonderfully gentle animals, used to meeting and interacting with people of every size. It's the moment children never forget.

THE FAMILY

Meet each of them

DID YOU KNOW?

Three things about llamas

  1. The llama was domesticated almost 5,000 years ago in the Andes — one of the oldest domestic animals in the world.

  2. With a soft foot like a dog's, the llama does not compact the ground when it walks: 90% less environmental impact than a horse.

  3. The llama is a relative of the camel — the same family as alpacas, guanacos and vicuñas.

What our guests say

My daughters loved feeding the animals — everything done with so much care by the people who look after them.
