Hike with the Goats
von Trapp Family Lodge & Resort
Explore a 1.75-mile hike through forest, meadows, and an apple orchard that leads to the historic von Trapp Family chapel. Along the way, meet my friendly Nigerian Dwarf herd—Sunshine, Indigo, Zebu, Skunk, Iggy, Ira, and Cosmo—and learn how I raise goats with an emphasis on family bonds, friendships, and social hierarchy. Hand-feed treats, snap photos, and cuddle the three-month-old triplets Iggy, Ira, and Cosmo for a hands-on, unforgettable farm experience.
