Located in the Flemish region of Belgium, De Alpacaboerderij offers a unique blend of rural charm and accessible farm adventure just outside Bocholt. This three-hour group excursion invites visitors to step inside the everyday rhythms of an alpaca farm while indulging in a hearty bread buffet. The farm’s setting features gentle pastures and comfortable stalls where visitors can get face-to-face with curious alpacas, animals prized not only for their soft fleece but also for their calm, engaging nature.
De Alpacaboerderij stands out by combining education with comfort. Groups of twenty or more—especially seniors or those with limited mobility—benefit from a terrain free of obstacles, an adapted restroom, and an indoor environment reflecting the natural temperatures of the farm.

This behind-the-scenes insight deepens appreciation for the alpacas’ unique biology and the sustainable farming practices central to this operation.
Beyond meeting the animals, guests can browse the Alpaca Shop, which offers locally made products that underscore the farm’s commitment to both community and conservation. The farm’s easy accessibility, combined with its thoughtful programming, makes it a standout destination for groups wanting a meaningful outdoor experience without a rugged trek.
