Outdoor Discovery Adventure Company

Adventure in the Shannon region in Ireland

The Outsider magazine crew recently took off for a trip to the Midlands and Shannon region and found some unexpected adrenalin kicks. Anyone for wakeboarding or barefoot waterskiing with Watermark Ski Club on Lough Derg...zorbing or river tubing with the Outdoor Discovery Adventure Centre in Ballymahon, Co Longford...horse riding on the grounds of Kinnitty Castle...or a lovely hike in the Slieve Bloom Mountains? If so you're in for a treat! Two great places to stay are Kinnitty Castle or Ardmore Country House, Kinnity.

This is a great addition to any event. Children as young as 5 can easily shoot at the targets with our patented soft foam tipped arrows. Be warned though it is addictive!
