2-hour Llama Hike
(on wilderness trail)
$79 + tax per person
A relaxing 2-hour easy hike, along a gorgeous mountain trail with your own pack llama! The summer trail is 100% shaded and we walk through cold creeks to cool down! Trail is selected according to weather conditions.
Minimum - 2 people.
Llama Hiking in Summer
We choose a trail that is most comfortable depending on the weather. In the summer when it is really hot, experience the cool waters of the creek, which we follow and cross over a few times. Your feet will get wet so wear hiking boots, sandals or water shoes. Bring a drink and the llamas will carry it for you in the coolers with ice!
​
Bathroom facilities are available on the Hobbit Creek Trail (used during warmer months).
Llama Hiking in Winter
In the winter, we use another beautiful trail with no water crossings ... no need to worry about wet, cold feet! The air is crisp and the hikers are energized! If you are lucky to get snow, the trees along the trail show off the sparkling white powder on each branch. Get your cameras out for this hike!
​
No bathroom facilities on the Burnet Gap Trail (used during colder months).
Things to Remember
We do not stop for a meal during the hike.
Don't forget snacks for the llamas ... they love plain graham crackers, animal crackers, mini-wheat cereal (not frosted) and oatmeal cookies (not frosted).
If you have any questions, need to cancel or change the dates you booked, please contact Sandy at llamahiking@aol.com or call (423) 426-7626.
AGE LIMITS
Our age limits are 7 to 75. Please, no babies in backpack carriers. We cover a lot of ground in a short time, so please make sure that your younger children are able to hike up to 2 miles and that they will not be afraid to walk in the creek waters (ankle to knee high). If the child can't complete the entire hike, you may carry them on your shoulders, but you can't also walk a llama. A guide will take your llama for the remainder of the hike.
​
WEATHER
If the weather is bad on your scheduled llama hike day, we will try to reschedule your hike on another day.
​
LLAMAS
We try to match up each hiker with one llama; however, on larger groups over 10 people, you will have to share a llama with another person. We charge per person, not per llama. If you do not want to share a llama, please request this in advance and we will set up a private hike for you, if we have availability.
​
DOGS
Dogs are allowed, but must remain on a sturdy leash at all times. Dogs must not bark, chase, scare or bite the llamas or people. The person walking the dog cannot also walk a llama. Dogs are to be walked in front of the llama herd-string so that the llamas can see the dog. If any dog begins to behave with risk to llamas or people, you will be asked to leave with no refund.
​
PAYMENT
We accept PayPal and credit cards only. No cash or credit cards are accepted at the trailheads. All sales are FINAL.
REFUND POLICY
Payments will be refunded in full if the management of The Wandering Llamas finds it necessary to cancel your scheduled hike. This would only happen due to severe weather conditions or an unexpected, disruptive event that cannot be reasonably anticipated or controlled, such as COVID, etc. No refund if you cancel for any reason within 30 days of the reservation date. No refund if you or anyone in your party are more than 15 min late (from the start time) of your scheduled hike. We feel, out of courtesy, it is not fair for other hikers to wait more than 15 min for lost or late hikers. No refund for no-shows, late or lost hikers.
