Social media got you riled? Forget the drama, meet a llama. Nestled
in North East DFW, amid established older neighborhoods and grand new
communities, is a ranch called ShangriLlama, an animal adventure
company. And if you happen to live in the communities along the Oak
Point Preserve in Plano, you may just find yourself watching a llama
walk right outside your living room window.
As the weather warms up,
the llama ranch offers you a chance to learn about llamas as you walk
them through the Plano trail. The walks take place during the
weekends and start at the ranch in Parker where you get to know each
of the llamas. Then a quick 2-mile ride to Plano and you’re walk
begins. A collection of connected trails weave through the preserve
and exit out onto the Santa Fe Trail, a quaint little walking path
that runs along the border of an Oak Point neighborhood. You’ll
stop half way at the children’s park where you and your llama can
take a rest under the shade of pecan trees. Once back at the ranch,
you can take selfies with your favorite llama before you say goodbye.
If you don’t like walking but still want to learn about these kooky
characters, the ranch offers one-hour llama lessons in their
temperature-controlled barn.
Discounts are offered through Groupon
and LivingSocial vouchers.
