Ballyhass Adventure Group

Ballyhass Adventure Group is a group of Activity Centres based in Munster Ireland. We aim to provide instructor lead experience rich outdoor sessions to all age groups from Schools to Corporate Team Building. Founded in 1999 at Ballyhass Mallow our first site began as a fishing centre and now has grown to a large Outdoor Adventure Centre that caters for 500 day visits in the height of the season. We specialise in large group outdoor experiences with a guaranteed mix of Land, Water and Height based activities in each package. Based out of an old Quarry, Ballyhass Mallow Offers activities such as Ziplinning over the lakes, Highropes courses, Climbing on the natural cliff faces and kayaking, raft building and wakeboarding on the crystal clear quarry lake waters. In 2014 we installed Ireland largest cable wakeboarding centre which has grown to be the epicentre of wakeboarding in Ireland regularly hosting the Irish National Championships. In 2017 one of Irelands largest inflatable Aqua-parks was installed on site and has been constantly expanded since. Catering for up to 60 participants every hour, we have brought the Team Ballyhass mantra to high volume outdoor activity. In 2018 we have expanded to our second location Ballyhass Coachford. Carved out of dams in the mid 1950's, the 10-mile long, 70 ft deep enchanting Inniscarra Lake is a hidden beauty that appears to have been here since time began. Beautiful and remote, yet within just half an hour of Cork City and Airport, it's guarded by the magnificent Carrigadrohid Castle at one end and the Inniscarra Dam at the other. It might be a new location but Team Ballyhass are going to be on hand to deliver the same great experiences that we have been doing in Mallow for the last decade. Starting with an Aquapark and kayaking tours but looking to expand further in the near future. We have excelled in bringing unique new booking systems and operations into a very traditional industry of Outdoor education.
