Not every visitor wants a full guided walk - and that's exactly why we run a Halloween Family Meet & Greet Open Day alongside our main Halloween walk. This year's Open Day takes place on Saturday 31 October 2026.

What Happens on an Open Day?

Rather than following a guided route through Itchen Valley Country Park, our Open Day lets you spend relaxed time with the herd close to the farmyard - meeting, greeting and hand-feeding our alpacas in their Halloween decorations.

Dates, Times & Pricing

The Halloween Family Meet & Greet runs 10:30am-12:30pm, with adult tickets at £12 and children at £6. It's a lower-cost, lower-commitment way to enjoy the Halloween season with the herd, and works well for younger children or larger groups.

Want the Full Walk Experience?

If you'd like a guided countryside walk with the herd instead, our Halloween Alpaca Walking Experience runs the same day from £32 per person.
