a	Sailing Take to the water in a dinghy sailing boat! Enjoy learning under the eye of an experienced instructor who will guide you from total beginner to advanced expert! Our 07 fleet is made up of the RS Visions and Feva's and our brand new Phileas Ludic day sailing boat. Using the ISA syllabus you will enjoy the learning experience in total safety.	a
		Windsurfing Windsurfing at ULAC is suitable for all levels; using the progressive ‘Go Windsurfing’ Scheme participants will learn all the skills they require at a pace that suits them. With our modern equipment and under the guidance of our enthusiastic staff we will have you gliding effortlessly over the water before you know it!
		Kayaking With both closed cockpits and sit on top kayaks experience what it is like to see some of Lough Derg by kayak. We can teach participants basic introduction strokes right up to more advanced techniques needed for tackling white water. We’ll also throw in a kayak game or two just for the fun.
		Canoeing Or open boating as it’s also known is a little more relaxed than Kayaking with usually 2/3 to a boat. The Open / Canadian canoe is immediately distinguishable from a kayak because it is paddled using a single bladed paddle. On a relaxing open boat trip you will get to visit some of the many islands surrounding the beautiful waters of Lough Derg and all with company.
		Dragon Boating The sport of Dragon Boat Racing originated in China many centuries ago. The 40 foot long canoe style boats have ornamental dragon heads at the bow and dragon tails at the stern. These boats can seat up to 20 paddlers, a helm to steer the boat and a drummer at the front to beat to the rhythm of the paddlers. This activity is suitable for complete beginners and all that is required is some team spirit and a good set of lungs. (Please note Dragon boating is only suitable for groups of 24+)

	a	High Ropes Course ULAC is home to Munster’s First High Ropes Course. The course is a series of physical adventure challenges requiring a combination of teamwork skills and individual commitment. This aerial obstacle course consists of six individual elements that focus on the individual achievements of participants as they challenge themselves. Physical Safety is ensured through the use of a belay system with ropes, carabineers, harnesses and specialised hardware. With the reassurance of our professionally trained facilitators, every event is about perceived versus actual risk, thus emphasising our policy of ‘Challenge by Choice’.	a
		Low Ropes Course To compliment our already impressive high ropes structure we are now introducing this new Challenge course. This course is designed to compliment our existing high ropes course and provide exciting low level challenges to develop team work or just for fun. The course comprises of a variety of challenges some of which test the individual while others require team skills.
		Team Challenge Discover more about yourself and your team-mates while at the same time learning the advantages of planning, co-operation, motivation, support and determination. These tasks will challenge participants both physically and mentally. Most attributes of a successful team will be called upon and one thing is for sure participants will be tested.
		Orienteering For this sport we have both a land and a water option. Land based orienteering requires physical fitness, navigational and map reading skills to complete the specially designed course. For participants who like to take things a little less serious we also have an exciting Treasure Hunt option. Water based orienteering teams use canoes and kayaks and follow the map which takes them on a Lough Derg Trip. Participants will visit some of the islands along the way and complete a challenge or two on the journey.
		Archery The Archery at ULAC takes place in our outdoor range, clients can compete in individual or team events. Competitions can vary from achieving highest score to knockout games and challenges. Archery is a fun activity which involves minimum physical effort but requires co-ordination, balance and a steady hand. The archery challenge is guaranteed to test clients both physically and mentally, in a fun but engaging environment.
		Please note: Our variety of activities does not stop here. We at ULAC are very flexible and all activities can be altered or adapted to suit participants needs. There are numerous variations on each activity and we would love to have the pleasure of introducing you to some of them
