Does this sound familiar?

  • Eight children in the living room, constant noise and the worry that everyone stays in one piece
  • Thinking up a programme, setting up, tidying up
  • Another indoor playground or trampoline hall because it is simply easy

With us it is different: outside on the pasture, with plenty of space, fresh air and calm animals that set the pace.

How your birthday works


We meet on our pasture above the hiking car park between Ensingen and Horrheim. Duration: about 2.5 hours.

We welcome the group on the pasture and explain how to handle alpacas.

Together we set off with 5 alpacas. The children may lead the animals together with an adult. From the age of 10 they can also lead an alpaca on their own.

Along the way we explain a few things about the animals. It pays to listen closely, because some of it comes up again later in the ranger test.

Time for the cake you brought or for handing out presents. Beer table sets are ready for you.

Before the treasure hunt, the children take the alpaca ranger test: a quiz with 10 questions that reflect what they heard about the animals on the walk. Whoever answers 7 of them correctly has passed and receives the ranger ID card.

Then the treasure hunt begins, which is all about alpacas. At the end, a present is waiting for the birthday child. What it is, we will not tell.

The highlight for the children

The alpaca ranger test

Before the treasure hunt, there is a quiz with 10 questions. It picks up what we explain to the children about the animals on the walk. Whoever gets 7 right has passed and receives their own ranger ID card.

So it pays to listen closely along the way.

Meeting point, parking and clothing

Meeting point

The animals are above the hiking car park between Ensingen and Horrheim. From the car park, walk up the hill a short way towards Eselsburg and then take the first paved road on the right. Open meeting point in Google Maps (coordinates: 48°58'21.1"N 8°58'01.8"E).

Parking

Parking is available at the hiking car park at the Häckselplatz.

Clothing

Dress for the weather and wear shoes suitable for the pasture. Rubber boots are not necessary, they tend to get in the way when walking.

Supervision

Parents are responsible for supervising their children and stay with the group during the birthday.

Dogs

Dogs are not allowed, as they can stress our alpacas considerably.
