Alpaca aperitif and guided tour

Hinterarnig 250, Schönengrund

Discover the new world. Let the lovely, cozy animals have an effect on you and be infected by their nature.

You immediately notice their big eyes, their teddy bear-like appearance and the deep, gentle humming sound with which they communicate with each other.

The farm is located at 1000 meters above sea level, on the Way of St. James on the Arnig hill and covers 18 hectares plus 6 hectares of forest.

Our farm is home to many animals. In addition to the 60-strong alpaca family, who have made their home with us since 2004, our dairy farm also has suckler pigs, fattening pigs, bees, cats, a dog and 21 Brown Swiss cows.

Since 2015, we have been selling all our high-quality alpaca products in our own farm store, Alparama. Take a look at our wide range of products for yourself during a visit.

We are happy to give you an insight into our everyday life during a farm tour. Get to know the animals, listen to the cowbells and hear the alpacas humming while we serve an aperitif.

We are now using our animal manure to create Terra-Preta nutrient humus and produce our own biochar. On request, we can explain the production process so that you can follow it closely.

Our alpaca farm gives many impressions of our work. We look forward to your visit.
