Between mountain air & alpacas: a special experience in Sölden
Alpaca hike for everyone
Sometimes it’s the quietest moments that stay with us the longest. An alpaca hike in Sölden combines gentle encounters with animals and the impressive natural scenery of the Ötztal valley, creating an experience that both slows you down and inspires you. Between crisp mountain air, scenic trails, and fluffy companions, it quickly becomes clear how refreshing mindful experiences can be.
Why an alpaca hike in Sölden is so special
Alpacas have an excellent sense of their environment and a particular charm. They are amusing and kind-hearted at the same time. They react immediately to stress and hectic situations with their body tension and manage to get rid of them just as quickly, thanks to their calm and relaxed manner. If you want to learn more about these animals and experience them first-hand, we offer weekly alpaca walks at the 5-star hotel Das Central in Sölden. On a guided tour of Caroline Santer’s Brandlehof farm, you will learn about alpaca breeding and keeping.
Guided alpaca hike as part of the activity programme
As part of our weekly activity program, we accompany our guests on guided alpaca hikes through the mountain world around Sölden in both summer and winter. Together with the alpacas from Brandlehof, the approximately two-hour tour follows the Panorama Trail in Sölden, combining time in nature with special animal encounters. In summer 2026, the alpaca hike takes place weekly on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
COSTS: € 35,00 adults / € 20,00 accompanying person
Alpaca yoga in Sölden: experiencing relaxation in a new way
Together with Brandlehof in Sölden, guests can look forward to a special summer experience: alpaca yoga in the middle of a calm herd of alpacas. The yoga sessions take place directly within the alpaca herd, creating a unique and peaceful atmosphere. In summer 2026, the yoga sessions will take place weekly on Fridays until September 4th.
COST: € 30,00 per person
What makes alpacas so special
The alpacas from Brandlehof in Sölden impress with their calm and unhurried nature. These gentle animals often set their own pace, and when a lush meadow appears along the way, they are happy to pause for a break.
Alpacas are very sensitive to their surroundings and tend to trust people who approach them with calmness and patience. After just a short time, their relaxed nature becomes noticeable, and this sense of serenity begins to transfer, making the hike feel almost meditative.
