What we will do
The meeting is in Scicli (RG), where we will meet the guide who will accompany us on this educational experience on the world of alpacas.
We will set off on a guided tour inside thefarm, walking along an avenue surrounded by fenced fields. And it is here that we will meet Domenico, Marte, Maya, Inca, Nazca, Lima, Arequipa and other sweet alpacas that have made their home here.
During the visit, which will last about an hour, the guide will tell us many interesting facts about these animals of South American origin, the differences with other camelids and breeding techniques.
For the second part of the activity, we will move to a late 19th-century farmhouse attached to the property and nestled among centuries-old ficus trees, where we will attend a workshop on alpaca fibre processing. Dulcis in fundo, at the end of this experience we will be able to take a soft gadget home with us!
The total duration of the activity will be about one and a half hours.
