Catanger Llama Trekking

Catanger Llama Trekking

Although you can't actually ride them, these lovely pack animals will willingly carry your rucksack, whilst you enjoy the beautiful scenery. What better way to get away from it all than by leading a gentle llama along bridleways, farm tracks and country lanes.

Visitors centre includes 3 toilets with hot water hand washing areas, indoor and outdoor eating facilities where you are welcome to have a picnic after your visit, car parking next to centre with full disabled access.
