Book Regular Walk NowHensting Alpacas at Itchen Valley Country Park runs Hampshire's most family-friendly alpaca walking experience — all ages welcome from 3 upwards, infants in carriers, accessible Wednesday walks for all abilities, and free carer tickets. Walks last approximately 2 hours and take you through 440 acres of ancient Hampshire countryside alongside our friendly herd.
Itchen Valley Country Park is home to both Hensting Alpacas and Go Ape's high ropes, ziplines, and axe throwing. Book your morning alpaca walk, then spend the afternoon on Go Ape's Treetop Challenge or Treetop Adventure — perfect for families or adventurous groups wanting a full day out.
Mother's Day at Hensting Alpacas has become an annual tradition for dozens of Hampshire families — a morning or afternoon away from the kitchen that combines the best of the outdoors, gentle exercise, and genuine animal contact in a way that a card and chocolates simply cannot replicate. Our alpacas are gentle, curious, and responsive to the calm energy their handlers and guests bring; watching a mum — whether she is 35 or 75 — quietly bond with an alpaca on the lead while her family walks beside her is something our team genuinely looks forward to every March. We open additional slots in the weeks surrounding Mother's Day and offer gift vouchers for families who want to give the experience as a surprise.
Mother's Day alpaca walk slots at Hensting Alpacas are available throughout March at Itchen Valley Country Park, West End, SO30 3HQ. Gift vouchers can be purchased online or by calling 0333 050 4012 and are delivered digitally within the hour — ideal for last-minute gifting. The walk is priced from £32 per person, suitable for all ages including children and grandparents, and lasts approximately 2 hours. Many families book for the whole group — grandparents, parents, and children together — making it one of the more sociable Mother's Day options available in Hampshire.
Itchen Valley Country Park offers much more beyond the alpaca walk: Go Ape high ropes and zip lines, 6 play areas, woodland café, orienteering trails, parkrun every Saturday, and over 5km of accessible walking routes. Easily the best value full-day destination in Hampshire for mixed-age family groups.
