The Spring & Summer Season of 2022 is here and it’s time to let you all know exactly what’s opening this May Bank Holiday Weekend. There’s never been a better time to get active, learn a new skill, or even start up an old one for the winter! Make sure you check out our Adventure Pass offer if you are coming down to us more than once this summer! Summer camps and our courses are all open for booking now too, with RLSS Lifeguarding and PHECC first aid courses both starting at the end of May.
Never get bored at Ballyhass with everything from land, water and height waiting for you in our two awesome centres! Take a look below to see what’s open from May 1st;
Coachford Public Activities
Book these any weekend in May, June, or September. Or pick any of the 7 week days in July and August.
Aquapark
This summer our parks are bigger and better than ever with new layouts waiting for you from May 1st. Not to mention the surprising new obstacles coming in as the season progresses, so keep an eye on our social media channels to find out what’s new. It’s perfect for anyone over the age of 6 and at only €20pp a total deal for a day out!
The Mallow and Coachford parks have different layouts and activities, if you loved one last year then make sure you check out the other one this year!
Archery
Archery is one of the oldest sports in the world and if you’re aged between 10 and 65 we are sure you will fall in love with this sport. Instructors will guide you through some awesome archery techniques, then shoot the targets to your heart’s content, if you can. It’s one of the best activities for groups with a range of abilities as everyone can join in!
Kayaking Expedition
Are you looking for a big day out with your friends, because our kayaking tour is really something not to be missed. Take the guided tour up the River Lee while learning all about the valley and getting up close and personal with the nature and wildlife in this area. Travel 2.5km along the river, then stop for a quick snack at Carrigadrohid Castle which is one of the only castles built on a bridge.
High Nets
This is one of Coachford’s top activities and so much fun (trust me i’ve tried it out). Bounce, roll and play to your heart’s content in this massive bouncy course 10 metres above the ground, with so many levels, shoots, balls, and tunnels to explore. If you love our aquaparks then trust us this course is for you.
Mallow Public Activities
Book any weekend in May, June or September, or seven days a week in July and August.
Remember our Wakepark has been open since March, make sure to book a slot and try it out!
Aquapark
Of course the Mallow Aquapark is back in action just like the Coachford one! We worked hard to get it into the water in its brand new layout and are anxiously waiting for the brand new obstacles coming to us all summer long! Make sure you book our Aquaparks FAST as they sell out quickly.
Archery
Our archery arena is located away from the other activities but still in the nature of Mallow’s centre. Walk down the tranquil path taking in the countryside to get to this calming and stress free sport. Just like the Kayak Expedition in Coachford it’s great for groups and even have your own competition. Archery is perfect for anyone aged 10 and over, and especially good for groups with different levels of ability.
ZipLine
How does zipping 160 metres across our Mallow quarry sound? How about zipping back and forward on our two 160 metre ziplines? Watch the kayakers, swimmers, and SUPers below while you zip with your group for during this 90 minute adventure! This is for people 8yrs and up who are ready to have a blast with this incredible adventure.
