♿ Everyone Deserves to Walk an Alpaca

At Hensting Alpacas, we believe alpaca walks should be accessible to everyone. That's why we offer a £16 carer discount to support guests who require carer assistance for a relaxing, supported experience.

🌟 Dedicated Accessible Walks Every Wednesday

Fewer people, more support, and a calmer, sensory-friendly environment designed with you in mind

🦙 What Are Accessible Alpaca Walks?

These special walks are ideal for visitors with autism, visual impairments, mobility needs, or other requirements that benefit from carer support. They are designed to be relaxing, sensory-aware, and enjoyable for everyone involved.
