Canoeing
Or open boating as it’s also known is a little more relaxed than Kayaking and is great for families and expeditions as they can carry a number of people and equipment. On a relaxing open boat trip you will get to visit some of the many islands surrounding the beautiful waters of the river Shannon and Kilglass Lakes.

Archery
Archery, the art of using a bow to shoot arrows at a target, is one of the oldest precision sports still practiced today. Here at Shannon River Adventure, we use traditional long bows and straw targets set on tripods. Our archery areas are open and spacious, and the arrows used have flat blunt ends, thus ensuring total safety, so you can build your skills in a safe comfortable environment.

Try your hand at building your own raft and taking it out on the river. Great team building exercise, and great fun into the bargain!
