Nestled in the heart of Latvia, Rikas Alpaca School offers a relaxing countryside escape where you can reconnect with nature and enjoy the calm presence of alpacas.

Visitors can walk alongside alpacas through the scenic rolling hills of Piebalga, feed them, and observe their gentle behaviour in a spacious, fenced-in area.

During your visit, you’ll learn about these friendly animals and unwind in a quiet, personal setting – ideal for individuals, couples, or small families.

The on-site shop features beautifully crafted alpaca wool products and handmade wooden souvenirs, inspired by the resident alpacas themselves.

Advance booking is required to ensure a private and peaceful experience.
