BIKING IN KILLARNEY NATIONAL PARK
Take that bike outside! For our active families – hop on bikes and cycle through Killarney National Park’s woods, waterfalls and scenic delights around the middle of the Three Lakes with a local guide. Travel through undisturbed native woodlands and see the red deer in their homeland.
![Falconry Ashford Castle Cong Ireland]()
FALCONRY AT ASHFORD CASTLE
Quality time outside. And dramatic birds of prey. Enter the mystical woodlands of Ashford Castle that house the oldest falconry school in Ireland. Walk the gardens, lanes and woods, then try your hand (and arm) to get up close and personal with the birds on a Hawk Walk and try it for yourself.
![Travellers shooting bow in Winterfell]()
ARCHERY & AXE THROWING AT WINTERFELL
As it happens, Winterfell from the HBO production of George R.R. Martin’s Game of Thrones is just 40 minutes from Belfast. Here, you can wander the iconic filming locations on a self-guided bike tour before donning a cloak to try your skill at archery or your arm in an axe-throwing session.
