Primary School Tour

The Baltinglass OETC Primary School tour is an action packed day which introduces pupils to canoeing, archery, orienteering and indoor rock climbing in a safe and exciting way.
Our tour is a full day where all pupils complete 4 activities. Lunch and all special equipment are provided.
Worth noting is the fact that our tour is now so popular we have allocated most of April to take schools who are disappointed not to avail of May, June dates.

In recent years we are also delighted to offer Primary School tours on Saturdays and as a one night residential package.
