What CP Adventure does

CP Adventure is a privately held Irish outdoor adventure activity centre headquartered at Russborough House in Blessington, Co. Wicklow, approximately 30–40 minutes from Dublin. The company operates on a 270-acre site adjacent to Blessington Lake and the Blessington Greenway, running both land-based (zipline, climbing walls, archery, ropes course, abseiling, bushcraft, clay pigeon shooting, bungee trampolines, orienteering) and water-based (kayaking, canoeing, paddleboarding, war canoes, sailing) activities, supplemented by walking tours, bike rental, overnight camping programmes in the Wicklow Mountains, and first aid training.

The business sells approximately 60 bookable products directly to end users through its e-commerce website (cpadventure.ie) on a per-person, pay-as-you-go basis, with prices ranging from €15 for short bike rentals and basic activities to €142 for two-day overnight camps. The product portfolio is organized around six primary customer segments — primary schools, secondary schools (including TY programmes, Gaisce award journeys and field studies), corporate team-building groups, families booking children's birthday parties (with Harry Potter, Fortnite and Survival Skills themes), hen and stag parties, and youth/community groups — plus multi-day Adventure Weekends to Norway and Wales. Custom packages are handled via phone, email and a 'Request For Quote' workflow, and a Mobile Events Service delivers corporate team-building activities at client locations.

Revenue mechanics rely on per-person pricing with a 25% non-refundable deposit at booking and the balance due two weeks before the activity; most school and group offerings carry minimum participant thresholds (typically 10–20). The company self-reports over 20 years of corporate team-building experience and over 25 years of school-tour delivery, employs garda-vetted instructors, and holds no proprietary technology platform. CP Adventure maintains minor partnerships with Earth Force Education (Forest School delivery) and Phoenix Park Bikes (cross-redemption of gift vouchers), and is led by founder/business owner Conal Keaney with a small team (firmographic headcount 1–10).
