Adventure That Builds Real Skills for Scouts
Scouting is all about adventure, teamwork, and building real-world skills through the outdoors — from camping and hillwalking to paddling and expedition challenges as part of Scouting Ireland’s Adventure Skills programme.
At Shannon River Adventure, Scout Groups can take their programme off-site and into a safe, inclusive outdoor environment where activities like kayaking, climbing, archery, and team challenges are designed to build confidence, communication, and leadership — all while having serious fun in nature.
Whether it’s a section camp, team bonding day, or progression towards outdoor skills badges, it’s the perfect way for Scouts and Scouters to bring their adventure programme to life on the banks of the River Shannon.
So if you are a Scout Group, Girl Guides, Sea Scouts, Adventure scouts, Cubs – Get in touch.
*Estimated time – We create bespoke packages for each group – be that full day or overnight or for longer. We build the package to meet your needs.
