About

Over 20 acres of mature woodland on the shores of Ballyquirke Lough, Wildlands crams zip lines, treetop nets, climbing walls and an award-winning kitchen into one Galway adventure park. It is part of a growing cluster of activity centres along the Wild Atlantic Way gateway to Connemara.

Things to Do

Zip 'n' Trek

The signature activity: a four-circuit treetop course 15 m above the ground and over 1 km long, with 40+ obstacles, 10 zip lines (longest 94 m) and a 16 m tower with a Tarzan swing and 13 m freefall. From €32.50; minimum height 1.4 m, typically ages 12+.

Fun Walls and Celtic Challenge Rooms

Climb the colourful indoor Walltopia Fun Walls (from €24) or take on the Crystal Maze-style Celtic Challenge Rooms, puzzle rooms with an Irish mythology twist (90 minutes, from €27).
