Welcome

The Te Korito Alpaca farm is located a few kilometers outside of Wanganui town, next to the Whanganui river. We have been breeding alpacas for over 10 years and have a wide range of coloured huacaya alpacas in the herd.

Farm Tours: We are pleased to offer an alpaca experience for couples and groups of most sizes. For more details and to book your meeting with these wonderful animals, please go to this farm tours page.

Stud Services

Te Korito Alpacas currently has two resident stud males, McKenzie Fields Kokomo (Rose-grey/Roan) and Sunsetestate Bastille (Dark brown). These males have brought fineness and density into our herd. Full details and photographs of these males can be found on the stud services page.

Alpaca Products

Alpaca fibre is the superior choice for home spinners and knitters. Te Korito Alpacas sell a range of knitted and crocheted items in unique designs which make either fantastic gifts or something to spoil yourself! We also sell professionally carded slivers produced from our own animals for the spinners out there.
