Frequently Asked Questions
Who are these experiences suitable for?
Pack goat experiences are suitable for everyone – no matter your age, fitness level or interest. We will tailor the walk to your needs and preferences.
We will offer walks, hikes and picnics tailored to your needs – whether that means an hour and a half walk with no uphill climbs, or a full day tackling a steep slope to be rewarded with spectacular views.
What do I need to bring?
Bring walking shoes and appropriate clothing.
You may also wish to bring hand sanitizer – our goats are clean and healthy, but the oil in their fur can rub off on your fingers if you pet them a lot and it’s simply common sense to wash your hands after handling livestock!
