Llama Trekking in Great Smoky Mountains National Park
What’s the one thing that could make a beautiful, scenic hike EVEN better? If you answered “a llama,” you, my friend, are thinking along the same lines as I was when I discovered The Wandering Llamas in Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Eastern Tennessee.
In South America, llamas have been used as domestic pack animals for centuries. They’re great at carrying hiking gear – and they’re just cute as freakin’ heck! A llama hike is a family-friendly adventure that you can’t miss.

Meet Chester!
A couple years ago, I trekked with The Wandering Llamas and it was a super fun day! Click here to read all about hiking with Chester and the other llamas. (Sandy has since relocated and expanded her business and now hikes on different trails.)
Chester looks awesome.
If you know anything about the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, perhaps you’ve heard of the LeConte llamas? They take supplies up the mountain to the LeConte Lodge a couple times a week during the season. Chester is a retired LeConte llama, as are a couple of others that Sandy owns.
Chester looks really cool.to hang out with.
He is, and he’s a sweetheart too!
We’re not doing anything as exciting as hiking with Llamas!! So cool!
Well, if you’re every near eastern Tennessee, keep Sandy’s llamas in mind. You will not be disappointed!
My son & his family have Llamas. My granddaughter bought me an Llama mug for my birthday.
Sweet! Don’t you just love llamas? So fun!
How fun! That is certainly more adventuresome than I have been. I’m just happily reading and writing! But it looks cool.
Thanks Stacey! Enjoy your time at home!
How cool! Chester looks awesome. My son would love him!
Chester is my favorite! If you know anything about the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, perhaps you’ve heard of the LeConte llamas? Chester is a retired LeConte llama, as are a couple of others that Sandy owns.
That sounds like a great adventure! I wish we were more exciting!
You don’t need to be exciting yourself to trek with Sandy’s llamas. The llamas provide all the excitement you’ll need. 🙂
We are learning how to play the guitar.
Sandy does live music treks….maybe you can go on that one and bring your guitar. 🙂
Wow, this looks like so much fun! What a unique experience! Totally adding this to my list the next time we are in Tennessee!
Awesome! I hope you enjoy your trek, and tell Sandy I sent you!
That’s amazing! I’d love to try that out.
If you’re ever in eastern Tennessee, be sure to check out The Wandering Llamas. Sandy is truly the BEST.
What a cool and unique experience! I read once that everything is a gift – it’s a positive mindset during this surreal time and for those fortunate to remain healthy, these new experiences could be gifts to ourselves.
Agreed 100% Sandy’s llamas are very healthy, and just walking llamas in a line naturally creates 6 feet of space between each human. Perfect!
Chester looks like a fun fella to spend the afternoon with.
Chester is the best!
Looks fun, one I can hopefully be able to try someday. My husband would definitely be on board, we both like incorporating some physical activity when travelling. The kids though, will take some convincing but pretty sure won’t take a while with a llama as adorable as Chester.
Kids LOVE trekking with Sandy’s llamas. The llamas are so gentle that even a 5 year old can lead one.
hahah I LOVE this! I know someone who is weirdly obsessed with Llamas and thinks they are the best things ever! I will share LOL
Love it Jen! Thanks!
Llamas are cool. Chester seems like a cool dude.
Yes! Shhhhhhh….Chester is my favorite, but don’t tell the others. 🙂
This looks interesting!
It is! Sandy shares interesting info on flora and fauna along the way and the llamas are simply adorable.
Llamas look hilarious and so glad these ones look healthy. I always worry about the treatment of animals on tours. As long as they’re treated right, touring with animals can be enjoyable for us and them.
Sandy treats her llamas like family, not family pets, but actual family.
I never knew this was a “thing”! He is so cute!
Yes! Sandy is a close friend of mine and all of her llamas are perfect. I have to admit though….Chester is my favorite. 🙂
I love this! Chester is so cute. I wonder this is offered around me,
