Alpaka-Farm Elvira Birnstingl
Maria LankowitzUnique alpaca experiences and wool products in Maria Lankowitz, Styria.
In the picturesque setting of Maria Lankowitz the Elvira Birnstingl Alpaca Farm offers unique animal encounters. The alpacas, members of the New World camel genus, are renowned for their intelligent and friendly nature, making them ideal companions for trekking tours. With names like Cosmo and Marley, these animals provide a perfect escape from everyday life and an invitation to immerse oneself in nature.
Annually in May, the alpacas are sheared, and the high-quality wool is used to produce various products on-site. The range includes knitting yarn, allergy-friendly blankets, and keratin soaps, with the alpaca wool products known for their quality and sustainability.
Visitors can enjoy guided walks with the alpacas, which take place along the scenic Pibersteiner Lake in Maria Lankowitz. These tours, lasting about 1 to 1.5 hours, are an excellent opportunity to experience the calming effect of the alpacas. Additional walks are available in Voitsberg, where, alongside alpacas, horses and royal poodles are also part of the experience.
