About

Alpacas, Legends & Lough Views: The Ultimate Mournes Adventure! 🦙🌄

Tucked between the majestic Mourne Mountains and the sparkling waters of Carlingford Lough lies one of Northern Ireland’s best-kept secrets – a delightful alpaca adventure that’s equal parts cuddly, quirky, and captivating and winner of the Best Small Tourism Experience in Northern Ireland!

Get ready to meet, mingle, and fall in love with our charming herd of alpacas as you stroll along our scenic adventure trail. These fluffy companions are more than just photogenic – they’re curious, gentle, and totally up for a walk (or a selfie!). As you wander through the breathtaking countryside, you’ll hear tales of Vikings, gallant knights, ancient castles, emigration stories, and even the aviation history of the Greencastle Aerodrome.

Kids will go wild for the treasure hunt, while grown-ups can proudly take home their official Alpaca Herding Certificate – a unique souvenir that beats any fridge magnet – although we sell those too, the hardest part is deciding which alpaca magnet to buy!

Whether you're looking for a family-friendly day out, a special experience for someone with mobility needs, or just a fun way to pry teenagers away from their screens, this alpaca trek has you covered. With panoramic views, fresh air, and furry friends, it's the kind of feel-good activity that makes holiday memories truly unforgettable and if it’s your birthday you get a special birthday bonus gift!

Oh, and did we mention? It’s an Instagrammer’s dream – think golden hour alpacas, majestic mountains sweeping down to Carlingford Lough, and epic photo ops you’ll want to frame (or at least post with #lovecranfieldalpacas).

So book tickets online, grab your phone, and come join the adventure – the Mournes are calling, and the alpacas are waiting!

During July & August we are including a complimentary refreshment which you can sit back & enjoy the stunning panoramic views whilst our adorable alpacas graze around you. Perfect!
