Wellness in the Shannon Region

Adventure and relaxation to invigorate the soul

Get in touch

Wellness tourism is an ever-growing trend within the global MICE industry and the Shannon Region offers a wealth of relaxing experiences. It's the perfect backdrop for guests hoping to recharge and reconnect after the anxiety created by the international health crisis.
 
The economy of wellness in Ireland is evergreen and constantly growing — especially now that business tourism has also embraced the trend. A renewed interest in looking after the wellbeing of delegates has resulted in the introduction of high-quality wellness experiences to many MICE programmes.
 
The Shannon Region is home to an array of opportunities for clients to immerse themselves in feel-good vibes. Delegates can explore unforgettable landscapes, indulge their inner foodies with nutrient-rich local delicacies, or enjoy an adrenaline-infused activity that gets the pulse racing.

Incorporating wellness into a MICE trip can enhance engagement and increase productivity; after all, morning meditation or surf lessons at sunrise are perfect ways to start a busy day of teambuilding, networking or strategising. The Shannon Region's peaceful locations, rugged landscapes and breathtaking views provide the ideal surroundings for a safe and health-focused conference, meeting or incentive.
 
Meet in Ireland partners with the Shannon Region Conference and Sports Bureau, which is always on hand to answer your enquiries and offer guidance on your next wellness-focused MICE event. The following are just some of the fantastic experiences designed to reinvigorate, revitalise and rebalance in the beautiful Shannon Region.

Bike the Burren

Sometimes the best way to experience a landscape is to immerse yourself in it. With E-Whizz Electric Bike rental, delegates can do just that as they glide through the Burren area at ease, stopping off to appreciate the other-worldliness of this unique scenery.

Forage for lunch

Delegates will return to their hunter-gatherer roots by sourcing edible plants and gathering delicious seaweed on a foraging walk with Wild Kitchen, a member of the Burren Food Trail. By availing of the local knowlege of a horticulture tutor and guide to explore deserted beaches, picturesque laneways and the Burren landscape, delegates will learn more about the flavours of Ireland through a variety of herbs, plants and seaweeds.

Farming fun

Another way to get back to basics awaits at the Burren Farm Experience. Choose from camping packages to day trips showcasing the farming methods used in this conservation area. Guests can reinvigorate with some forest bathing, get the adrenalin pumping on a paddleboard or soak up the serenity and beauty on a picnic of fresh farm products after a stimulating Yoga class.

Build a bond

Challenge your clients to raise their fitness levels on a day of teambuilding and energising activities with Get West, which offers water zorbing, abseiling and archery. Alternatively, take to the water on a kayaking, sailing or surfing experience with Nevsail Watersports. Enjoying a day of outdoor adventure and activities helps put fun into any MICE experience and leaves delegates energised and ready to work.
