Hike with llamas, alpacas or huskies

Horst Kuster and his llamas live at Bartholomäberg in the Montafon at a prime location with panoramic views. They regularly go on a hike and are pleased about anyone wanting to join. On the four- to five-hour trekking tours, the llamas carry the luggage and accompany the group safely through the mountains. Along the way, llamero Horst and hiking guide Imelda share stories about the landscape, the people and traditions in Montafon. Throughout Vorarlberg you will find various opportunities to hike with llamas or alpacas.
