Active Ireland Camps have grown from our local Killiney Hill camps into a wider programme across Killiney, Sutton and Wicklow — with our Teen Getaways taking young people further afield.
We’re always looking for new places to explore and new ways to get children and young people outdoors. Our camps combine outdoor adventure, practical skills, games and challenges with plenty of time to have fun and enjoy being outside.
For Summer 2027, our Teen Getaways are heading to some brilliant new locations including Donegal, Glenmalure and Glendalough, alongside our Getaways at Knockree.
Independence Through Adventure.
From children's camps to teen adventures and Cycle & Craft, there is plenty of opportunity to get outdoors, try something new and make memories.
We’re an outdoor activity company, so our camps go ahead in all kinds of weather. Rain, wind, sunshine — it’s all part of being outdoors.
Come prepared with the right clothing and you’ll be ready for whatever the Irish weather throws at us!
Making friends. Making memories. Loving the outdoors.
Our children's camps are about getting outside, getting stuck in and having a brilliant few days with new and old friends.
From outdoor adventures, games and challenges to getting muddy, exploring and trying something new, there is always plenty to get involved in.
It’s a chance for children to make friends, make memories and simply love being outdoors.
Halloween, Easter and Summer camps — plus Cycle & Craft (ages 7–12): A brilliant mix of cycling, outdoor adventure and hands-on activities. Children get out on their bikes, develop their cycling skills and spend plenty of time outdoors, with creative challenges and activities mixed in along the way.
Summer Camps 2027 launch in January 2027.
Teen Camps are about fun, adventure and independence.
A chance to spend time outdoors with friends, try new things, take on challenges and have a bit more freedom. We want teenagers to have fun, make memories and discover what they can do for themselves.
Independence Through Adventure is at the heart of everything we do.
Not just a trip away. A proper adventure.
Our Teen Getaways give young people the chance to get away from the everyday, spend time outdoors, try new things, make new friends and build real independence.
With destinations across Wicklow and Donegal, each getaway offers something different — but the aim is always the same: Independence Through Adventure.
We want young people to love the outdoors — and learn how to look after it.
Through our camps, we introduce simple Leave No Trace principles and encourage everyone to respect nature, wildlife and the places we explore.
We don't just want young people to take part. We want them to leave feeling that little bit more confident than when they arrived.
Being outdoors gives children and teenagers the chance to make decisions, solve problems, take responsibility, try something new and discover what they can do for themselves.
Everyone should feel welcome, valued and able to take part.
Different people, abilities, personalities and perspectives make our groups stronger.
We encourage respect for ourselves, for each other and for the places we explore.
We give people the opportunity to make decisions, solve problems, take responsibility and achieve things for themselves.
Getting outdoors, trying something new and taking on a challenge creates experiences that stay with you.
Being active should be enjoyable. The best memories are made when people are having fun together.
“The instructors are amazing. We really appreciate that our son can now cycle and is so confident too. Massive thank you and big milestone achieved.”
Private Cycling Programmes“This camp was superb. It’s so hard to find camps and activities for teenagers. This was my son’s favourite camp. He just loved it! Well done all involved and keep up the good work.”
Teen Camps“We had the Multi-Activity Party for my son's 10th birthday. The kids had so much fun, especially with shelter-building! Active Parties took care of everything, and we just brought the food!”
Mary“Four students have learned to cycle independently. Confidence and well-being of the children has improved greatly, the children are so excited, and they ensure they are in school for each session. Children know now how to safely check their bike and cycle on the roads.”
Cycling Programmes for Schools“Second time at the camp and my daughter has asked to go back again next year! Great to have them roam around freely and have fun with nature and good old-fashioned games.”
Kids Camps“The Alien Escape was perfect for my daughter’s birthday! The kids loved working together outdoors and solving puzzles. We’ll definitely be booking again next year!”
