Nine Days Through Ireland with Fitness, Food & Adventure
Are you ready to explore the best of Ireland? On this nine-day retreat, we’ll pack light and journey through the country’s breathtaking landscapes, starting in the north and making our way south. Like all our retreats, you can expect adventure, stunning views, incredible food, fun workouts, and unforgettable experiences with an amazing group of people.
Throughout the trip, we’ll stay in three different hotels, ensuring a well rounded experience that goes beyond the typical tourist path. This isn’t just a fitness retreat, it’s a unique blend of fitness, culture, and once-in-a-lifetime moments, all while building meaningful connections that last far beyond the trip. Are you in?
Three Iconic Locations & Beyond
This retreat takes you on a bucket-list-worthy journey through Ireland:
Killarney: Known for its rugged beauty, Killarney is home to stunning national parks, serene lakes, and dramatic mountain landscapes.

Belfast: A city rich in heritage, surrounded by breathtaking coastal scenery and some of the world’s most awe-inspiring natural wonders.

YES, absolutely! Make sure to sign up as a 'Double Occupancy'.
If you want us to handle the split of the payment into two, please reach out to retreats@grownstrong.com after you have signed up and we can help you mitigate the payments.
YES, of course you can! We always have a mix of couples, friends, and individuals so you'll fit right in.
Absolutely! We actually encourage arriving a day early to allow you time to settle in, adjust to the time difference, and ensure that in case of travel delays, you won't miss any part of the retreat.
If you're interested in arriving early or extending your stay, please contact us at retreats@grownstrong.com, and we'll assist you with the arrangements for an additional fee.
TRAVEL
Flights are not included as our guests travel from all around the world. This approach gives you the freedom to select the flight that best fits your schedule and preferences. However, from the moment you arrive, we take over – handling all transfers from the airport to the hotel, ensuring a stress free experience for you. Once the retreat is done, we'll of course take you back to the airport.
Absolutely, we provide airport transportation. We'll arrange both your pickup and drop-off at the airport. Before your trip, we'll contact you to collect your flight details, ensuring we're there to welcome you upon your arrival.
For this retreat, we’re asking everyone to fly into Shannon Airport (SNN) and fly out of Belfast Airport (BFS). This allows for a smoother travel experience, minimizing long transfers and maximizing your time exploring Ireland.
Once you arrive, we’ll handle all transportation between locations, so you can relax and enjoy the journey!
After you sign up, we will contact you with exact instructions on how we'll meet you upon your arrival.
Ideally, you should arrive before 1 PM on the 6th of September. The drive from Shannon Airport to our hotel in Killarney takes about two hours. We plan to kick things off with a light welcome workout at 4 PM, giving you time to freshen up before our welcome dinner at 6:30/7 PM. The earlier you arrive, the more time you'll have to settle in and relax before the retreat officially begins!
While there are no scheduled activities on the final day, we recommend booking a flight that departs after 12 PM on September 14th. To ensure a smooth departure, we plan to get you to the airport at least two hours before your flight. Since the drive is about 30 minutes, this will give you time to enjoy breakfast and say your goodbyes without feeling rushed. Plus, no one wants to worry about an early departure on the last night!
ITINERARY
You can find an outline of what to expect further up on this page. As the date approaches, we will share more detailed information with everyone who has signed up. We promise you won't be disappointed!
The itinerary might change slightly, but we will of course keep you updated in such case.
If you have any questions at any time, please don't hesitate to contact us at retreats@grownstrong.com.
You are most certainly allowed to do your own thing! We understand that you may not want to be around everyone 24/7 so if you find yourself needing a break, not wanting to workout or join us on an experience, just let us know. We will always give you options to follow our plan or just do your own thing, it's completely up to you.
WORKOUTS
A mix of high-intensity, low-intensity, CrossFit, weightlifting, and bodyweight workouts. Every session is adaptable to your fitness level, so there’s no need to feel intimidated. It’s all about moving, feeling good, and most importantly, having fun!
YES! There will be modifications for all fitness levels, and participation in any activity is entirely up to you.
Across all sessions we have the flexibility to accommodate your fitness level, ensuring no one feels out of place. There's no need to worry about the intensity or difficulty of the workouts. Our primary aim is for you to have an enjoyable experience.
Not at all! This retreat is for all levels, ages, and genders. No prior experience is necessary! The main goal is for you to ENJOY YOURSELF! We will cater to everyone who participates, and we will scale each workout to your ability so everyone can join. We will have plenty of staff to accommodate exactly what you need.
FOOD & DRINKS
INCREDIBLE! What all our retreats have in common is our commitment to providing an excellent dining experience. We aim to deliver a blend of local cuisine with a diverse selection of other foods, ensuring a mix of flavors and experiences throughout your trip.
If you have any dietary restrictions, rest assured, we will make every effort to accommodate them. After securing your spot, we'll send a questionnaire to gather information about your food preferences and any allergies you might have.
Of course! If you’re looking to enjoy some drinks at the hotel or explore the local nightlife, we've got you covered. We'll provide suggestions and help set you on your way.
Additionally, on select evenings, an alcoholic beverage will be included with your dinner. And of course, we always organize a goodbye party towards the end of the trip, allowing us all to enjoy a night out together.
OTHER QUESTIONS

The typical age range of our participants is 25-50 years old. However, we warmly welcome everyone, regardless of age. We've had many guests outside this range, including our oldest participant to date at 68 years old, who thoroughly enjoyed the retreat.
We've found that 20 participants is the ideal number for creating a personalized and fun experience. On certain retreats we might go slightly over and others we will try to stay under. Each retreat is supported by at least 2 coaches or staff members, and we often include additional team members as necessary to ensure everyone receives the attention and guidance they need.
Yes, about 4-6 weeks before the trip, we create a WhatsApp group. Here, you can greet your fellow retreat participants and introduce yourself. It's an exciting time, allowing you to see who else is going, with friendships often starting to form even before we all meet in person.
It's entirely your choice. We use WhatsApp for communication before and during the retreat. WhatsApp needs an internet connection to work, but our hotel and most places we visit offer free Wi-Fi, allowing you to quickly and easily connect to the internet at no extra cost.
No, we don't provide travel insurance. We HIGHLY suggest you make sure you are either covered by your current insurance or get a specific travel insurance.
