Full description
Watchword: alpaca openers!
To spend a different day without straying too far from Milan, we are waiting for you at the Parco della Cava in Paderno Dugnano for a walk together with sweet alpacas.
Come and touch the softness of Bea, Angel and Cometa and relax with an aperitif in the park. To the alpacas fresh grass to munch on, to you a drink for a toast in company.
What we will do
The appointment is in Paderno Dugnano (MI), 5 minutes before the time indicated in the booking.
Here we will be welcomed by the guide, who will accompany us to get to know the alpacas and tell us some interesting facts about them during a 10-minute briefing. We will meet Bea - the wisest of the group, a born explorer - her daughter Cometa and the other alpacas in this sweet family, Angel, Pachi, Lucio and Gas.
Before starting the walk, the guide will assign an alpaca to each group of participants(1 alpaca for every 2 or 3 people). We will then set off, leading our new friends by the halter into the Parco Lago Nord in Paderno Dugnano, also known as Parco della Cava.
Walking along the park's paths, we will stop occasionally to let the alpacas graze, until we reach a small lake populated by ducks and turtles. We will then make a 20-30 minute stop for an aperitif at the park bar (included), with snacks such as chips, savoury snacks and an alcoholic or non-alcoholic drink.
After the break, we will return to the starting point and prepare to say goodbye to our new alpaca friends.
The activity will last a total of 2 hours.
