Great family activity with alpacas

“Barbara’s farm and welcome was fantastic! Humour, good mood and fun furry friends are waiting for you! We went on a lovely walk with the alpacas and fed them a treat after. It was a lot of fun! Barbara also speaks great French which might help others during their visit. Highly recommend.”

The best time

“We had the best time at The Flying Alpaca. If you love spending time with animals outdoors then this is for you. The alpacas, goats, chickens, cats and dog all have their own personalities and are so lovable. We had a great time walking with them. Barbara and Michele are the nicest people – so welcoming and great fun to spend time with. They make the experience so much fun”

Book your experience to our farm

Meet the whole alpaca family and spend some time with them!Alpacas are lovely, smart and very curious animals! They are also intelligent and they have different personalities. Some of them are sweet, others are more inquisitive, but all of them are extremely friendly and funny.

Thanks to their peaceful behaviour we can offer you lot of Alpaca Experiences, like our Alpaca Walk if you want to enjoy a fun time with them, or the Full Alpaca Experience where you will learn everything about them, and their wool, and how do we craft beautiful products thanks to their fleece and yarns.

Alpacas love children, so for this reason we also offer Alpaca experiences for families with kids like our Meet & Greet. Alpacas are also great fun for birthday parties, hen party or weddings, as it’s a unique, magic and memorable time to spend with people you love.

Stay cozy and creative

Visiting Loop Head is a fantastic way to spend your time during your stay, with endless sights and activities to explore. But let’s face it—sometimes the weather doesn’t play along, or you just feel like taking things slow. That’s where our soap-making workshop comes in!

Stay cozy and creative as you learn to craft your own natural, chemical-free soap. Perfect for all ages, this hands-on activity blends fun with a little self-care.

Plus, you’ll leave with your very own handmade soap to remember your visit! In our workshop, you’ll get to personalize your creation from start to finish. Choose your favorite essential oils to make a scent that’s uniquely yours, and play with colors to design a soap that reflects your personality. Whether you want a calming lavender blend or a vibrant citrus burst, the choice is all yours!

Not only is the process fun and engaging, but it’s also a great way to learn about the art of soap-making. By the end of the class, you’ll have your own customised soap to take home—a practical and personal keepsake from your time in Loop Head. It’s a perfect rainy-day activity or a unique addition to your trip itinerary!
