Ready for an adventure?

For thrills, spills and outdoor family fun, be sure to pencil in a trip to Kernow Adventure Park.

Set in 21 acres around a beautiful upcycled granite quarry near Falmouth, Kernow Adventure Park is just the thing for families seeking an action-packed day spent outside. Sunk deep into the earth, the freshwater lake provides a safe playground for adventure seekers, with a whole host of activities to keep everyone entertained.

Alex, the founder of Kernow Adventure Park, tells us:

“Our vision is to create opportunities in Cornwall for individuals and families to access adventure with our safe, natural and astounding lake.”

The team strives to break down barriers, promoting an active lifestyle, with the intention of creating a healthier and happier society. “Our mission,” Alex continues, “is to educate people that the social norms of sedentary lifestyles of gym fitness are not the only ways to live. We want to reconnect them with the outside and get them moving!”

Starting out as a waterpark in 2014, with just a cable for wakeboarding and some shipping containers on the beach, Alex rebranded the site as Kernow Adventure Park and began running inflatable aquapark sessions, installing a custom built, glass-fronted clubhouse with a café and bar.

“Then last year we added paddleboarding to our ever expanding offering, and there are lots of exciting developments in the pipeline for this year, so watch this space!”

Now that the evenings are drawing out with the promise of warmer temperatures, why not start planning your spring and summer diaries and book yourselves in for an afternoon at Kernow Adventure Park? You’ll be hard pressed to find a better way of making the most of Cornwall’s great outdoors!
