Alpaca or llama trek
Walk one animal through meadow and woodland paths during an approximately one-hour reserved experience.
Pleasant Valley, New York
A reservation-only Hudson Valley farm offering alpaca and llama treks, guided animal tours, group programs, celebrations, and production locations.
Farm profile
Lilymoore Farm is a working farm in Pleasant Valley with nearly 200 animals. Alpacas and llamas anchor the public experiences, while goats and other rescued residents broaden the guided tours. The property also houses Dreaming of a Chance, a nonprofit bird sanctuary that provides lifelong care for rescued pigeons and other birds.
Public access is structured around advance ticketing rather than open farm hours. The two core options are a small-group alpaca or llama trek for guests age nine and older and a guided farm tour suited to a wider age range. Private tours, organized groups, birthday celebrations, bachelorette treks, and professional production work have separate arrangements.
Treks and tours
The approximately one-hour trek leads a small group through open meadows and woodland paths. Each ticketed participant walks an individual alpaca or llama, and the farm does not allow unticketed companions to walk alongside. Participants must be at least nine years old; anyone younger than 16 must be accompanied by a ticket-holding adult. Private treks can be arranged for families or groups.
The one-hour guided farm tour is the practical choice for families with younger children or guests who want to meet more species without leading an animal along the trail. Tours include close interaction with alpacas, llamas, and goats, an introduction to daily farm life, and a visit to the bird sanctuary. The farm offers private tours, group tours, and scheduled behind-the-scenes visits on selected days.

Private and organized visits
Birthday bookings follow the same age distinction as the public experiences. A farm-tour birthday is open to all ages and includes animal interaction plus time for cake, while the trek birthday is limited to guests age nine and older. Birthday parties must be reserved at least two weeks ahead, and the farm publishes separate formats for each kind of celebration.
Private bachelorette visits use a two-hour trek format for guests age nine and older, followed by reserved time on the porch. Alcohol, smoking, and vaping are not permitted. Schools, camps, scout troops, nonprofit organizations, and groups of 20 or more can ask about dedicated tours and group rates rather than purchasing a standard public ticket without coordination.

Lilymoore makes the property available for commercial, television, film, catalog, music-video, editorial, and professional photography projects. Available settings include an 1840s eyebrow colonial house, a 1900 blue carriage-house barn, the farm-store building and porch, open fields, woodland trails, wetlands with separate street access, and fenced animal pastures.
Production use requires a separate inquiry and is not included with a public trek or tour ticket. Animal participation may be arranged in advance. The farm also operates an alpaca-product store offering apparel, accessories, gifts, and fiber-related merchandise, but current inventory and shopping arrangements should be confirmed through Lilymoore before making a retail-only trip.

Lilymoore offers one of the broader public programs among New York alpaca farms. The trek is designed for older children and adults ready to manage an individual animal on meadow and woodland paths, while the guided tour gives younger families time with a wider range of animals.
Families can prepare by reviewing how to interact with alpacas. Because experiences continue in some rain but can be canceled for severe conditions, the overview of seasonal alpaca farm visits is also useful before choosing clothing and travel plans.
