Get to know the alpacas of Domaine Poissant!

Make a reservation and look forward to a unique encounter with adorable alpacas at Alpagas du Domaine Poissant. This farm is home to more than 200 alpacas. Located in the Montérégie region, close to Mont Saint-Hilaire, it has a hiking trail is the woods where you can enjoy a pleasant walk with an alpaca. Rain or shine, you will be welcome to discover the farm, refocus and enjoy the company of these wonderful creatures.

Enjoy a stroll in good company

You can take a daytime walk, lasting up to 45 minutes, holding an alpaca on a leash. The pace of the walk is very slow, making it suitable for both children and adults. One animal can be shared by two adults or by members of the same family. It is advisable to wear boots and warm clothing on rainy days or during the spring thaw. Please note that dogs are not allowed, as they are a major source of stress for the alpacas, who see them as predators. No matter the weather, your walk with these gentle animals promises to be memorable!
