A wildly good time awaits at Marquam Hill Ranch! As picturesque as can be, the ranch encompasses several acres, which are inhabited by dozens of alpacas. The best part is that the ranch is open for tours, during which visitors can interact with and feed the resident alpacas. Take a look!

Located in Molalla, Marquam Hill Ranch was established over 10 years ago.

Initially, the ranch was home to just five alpacas. Today, the 18-acre property is home to over 80 alpacas – each as adorable as the next.

But the best way to learn about the furry residents is the Open Barn and Farm Tour.

The “intensive tour” is about 60 to 75 minutes, 30 to 45 minutes of which are spent walking by the pens while the owners explain all that goes into caring for them.
