Looking for a quiet night away from it all? Check out Smoky Mountain Llama Trek’s overnight trek! This overnight adventure will take you to the Buckeye Ridge Trail and to the top of Max Patch for a beautiful view of the Smoky Mountains. Visit a section of the Appalachian Trail to check out a shelter for dedicated hikers and enjoy an evening under the stars. In the morning, wake up to a tasty breakfast and head back to the farm to meet the rest of the llama herd!
You may be a little wary of llamas if you don’t know much about them. Although llamas are related to camels, these loving, fluffy animals at Smoky Mountain Llama Treks NEVER spit and are clean enough to cuddle up to. The animals are trek-trained to carry your gear and are very easy to lead. The llamas will follow you with no hesitation and will stop and go when you do! They don’t smell, kick or bite and are only trained for packs – not riding!
