Take advantage of our Thanksgiving Family Special! Children ages 5–12 can join our guided llama hikes on November 23 or November 25 for just $50 per person (regularly $75).
Gather the family and join us in DuPont State Forest for a guided hike to some of the area`s beautiful waterfalls. It`s a fun way to get everyone outside, spend quality time together, and make a few memories along the way. We`ll meet at the DuPont State Forest trailhead at 9:30 AM and wrap up around noon.
We`ll have 8 llamas joining us, and if a hike fills to capacity, participants may take turns walking with the llamas. It`s something we`ve done before and works out just fine!
Spots are limited, and these hikes will fill up quickly, so don`t wait to get your family signed up.
Book online at headwatersoutfitters.com under the Hiking tab or Events Calendar. If you have any questions email Lydia at [email protected]
