Alpakafarm Schaber is a family-run alpaca farm near Nürtingen in Baden-Württemberg that offers a range of guided alpaca experiences and educational farm tours. Located with views of the Schwäbische Alb and the Swabian Jura, the farm presents curated outdoor activities designed for nature lovers, families, and small groups. Offerings include Alpaka-Trekking and Wald- und Wiesentrekkingtour routes for relaxing walks with gentle alpacas, a Kombiticket that pairs a farm tour with trekking and includes a pair of alpaca wool socks, and a guided Alpakafarmführung covering breeding, care, feeding, and the processing of alpaca fiber.
Seasonal and specialty experiences feature a Genießertour combining alpaca trekking with a wine tasting led by Adelheid Schweizer, Kräuterwandern with a herbalist identifying wild herbs, Frühstückstrekking to go with coffee and pretzel, and the Alpaka-Trekking on the Besinnungsweg "Weitblick" offering reflective art and scripture along the trail.
Family-focused options include an Alpakaschnupperwanderung for families with small children (a gentle 1 km walk plus 30 minutes in a straw bounce house). Evening winter Glühweinwanderung tours run from November to February with LED lanterns and mulled wine or children's punch.
Tours are suitable for a variety of ages; standard Alpaka-Trekking is recommended from age six. Activities operate rain or shine where indicated. Alpakafarm Schaber emphasizes animal welfare, educational interpretation, and memorable outdoor experiences in a rural Baden-Württemberg setting. Visitors can learn practical alpaca care, ask questions about fiber processing, and purchase alpaca products directly on site where offered. Local partnerships highlight regional food and wine producers during special tours.
