Named one of the "50 Great American Adventures" in Travel + Leisure magazine, llama treks are great for experienced hikers and fun family vacations.
Based in Hot Springs, North Carolina, English Mountain Llama Treks offer daytime picnic hikes and multi-day hiking trips. Hikers can enjoy the views without carrying provisions, because llamas are great pack animals. Instead of hooves, llamas have two-toed padded feet that make them very sure-footed. Llamas are more maneuverable and smaller than other pack animals and they can go through/over/under/into almost any area that people can.
Tour prices start at US $75 per person for a one-day trek with lunch. Other packages include white water rafting excursions.
