If you’re already thinking ahead to summer, now is the perfect time to plan something your child will both truly love and benefit from.

Our Early Bird offer for Summer Camps 2026 is now live, giving families the chance to secure a place at Ballyhass while saving on some of our most popular camps. Early Bird pricing is available until February 1st, 2026.

But more than dates, prices, and “keeping kids busy”. Our camps are about something bigger: helping kids build confidence, connect with the outdoors, and grow through adventure.

Why Outdoor Adventure Matters: Now More Than Ever

Childhood today looks very different to how many of us remember it. Screens are everywhere, free outdoor play is becoming rarer, and opportunities for real-world exploration are shrinking.

At Ballyhass, we believe the outdoors offers something technology never can: space to move, breathe, problem-solve, and connect, with nature and with each other.

Outdoor adventure helps kids:

• Build confidence through achievable challenges
• Develop independence and resilience
• Strengthen social skills and teamwork
• Learn by doing, not watching
• Create real memories that last far beyond summer

Our summer camps are designed to give kids that space: no pressure, no pushing limits for the sake of it, just meaningful adventure at a pace that works for every child.
