The Jungle celebrates its 10th Birthday in Après-Ski style!

We all know winter can drag.

Long, dark nights affect a troublesome burden on the soul, dimming the memories of happy summer days.

In such times, folk are often said to be blue.

But not The Jungle.

We, at TheJungle, believe that life isn’t merely good. It is great. For just as there is an adventure around every corner so too is there a celebration in every day.

And in 2015, we have a lot to celebrate for this year marks our 10^th anniversary.

That’s right; The Jungle has been in the adventure business for 10 whole years! We attribute the lengthy service to an ardent love of adventure, passion for the delivery of excellent customer service and an ability to smile, regardless of the weather.

And so, in an effort to share our happiness at reaching such a milestone, we will host the first Après-Ski Party seen this side of Europe’s powder dusted slopes.

Party in Après-Ski style with The Jungle!

On Saturday 7^th March, we will transform our funky barn into an Alpine-themed haven of celebratory greatness, enabling visitors to benefit from a party scene to rival that of the world’s top ski or boarding resorts.

Ask any discerning skier or boarder and you will quickly learn that the Après-Ski is equally as important as the actual skiing event.  It typically begins around 3pm when adventure weary revelers pour off the slopes into the rustic bars searching for a refreshing reward for their daring pursuits and friends with whom to share tales of their snowy explorations.

The Jungle’s Après-Ski Party will offer all that and more!

We’ll offer you everything that makes an Après-Ski event unforgettable, from inspired décor, a top DJ, big beats and cheesy sing-along songs to traditional dancing chalet maids, state-of-the-art lighting, amusements and, of course, refreshments. The bar will be fully stocked with only the delicious from beers to spirits or, Jagermeister to Schnapps, your needs will be catered for by our friendly and attentive staff.

Dress for the slopes to be in with the chance of winning a prize!

The Red Bull Wings Team will be onsite seeking out the most inspired snow gear so dress to impress and you could win something you’d want to win!

If you were strapped for cash and couldn't escape to the slopes this season, or perhaps you went, the times they rolled but now you’re experiencing the post-holiday blues, or maybe the ski holiday remains a hopeful on your to-do-list.  

Either which way, The Jungle’s Après-Ski Party can lend a helping hand and ensure you regain that mile smile. 

So join us at our Après-Ski Party where we will raise a toast to celebrating without time frames, adventuring without limits and growing older with carefree abandon.

Life is short. Celebrate while you can. To Après-Ski.

The Après-Ski will kick off at 9.30pm on Saturday 7^th March. Tickets are £12 each, with £2 of each ticket going directly to the Northern Ireland Hospice (http://www.nihospicecare.com/). Tickets must be purchased in advance at www.thejungleni.com.

New Year's Resolutions.

It's that time of year again. 

A time when you notice the misty-eyed, inspired masses, reflecting and resolving to do things differently. A time when resolutions are made to make changes that will sufficiently mix things in an upward direction. 

As is the way - life changing thoughts lead to life changing decisions. 

And what could be more life changing than the decision to alter one's marital status. The decision to leave behind the shackles of a singular title and become a married entity, is one which many undertake during the festive season. 

In fact, studies show that 20% of all couples who get engaged do so over the Christmas and New Year period. And, just as Santa is setting about the business of toys and all things gift-like, it would appear that questioning menfolk are more inclined to get on bended knee on Christmas Eve. 

Indeed there is something to be said about the magic of Christmas.   

A magic which goes a long way to explain our latest Jungle adventure, for we are off! Road tripping is the name of the game ... well, the name of part one at least, by the time we reach part two we will certainly mean business: the Professional Games Business. 

The Jungle NI has more adventure games and activities than you could shake a stick at!

And so we're off  to Belfast's Wedding Journal Show to get loud, and shout about our fun and fabulous offerings! Our Hen and Stag packages have been reworked and re-packaged offering bolder thrills, bigger laughs and, more importantly, better value. 

Come see us at King's Hall Pavilion, this weekend!

The Jungle's top 5 tips to beat the Winter Blues.

In case you haven’t noticed it is Winter! And whether you’re blue from a severe lack of heat and all things sunny and light, or, your cheery disposition tripped and fell into a beastly pothole we, at The Jungle NI, endeavour to assist your plight and so have devised the following Top 5 tips to help you regain your human colouring and climb out of that rut.

1/ Go wild – get outdoors!

The wonders of fresh air have long been extolled and rightly so for the lovely, fresh and crispy air, commonly associated with Winter, effects a fine rouge on the face – that’s rosy red not frosty blue. The combined effect of fresh air and action-packed outdoor adventure, the likes of which is available at The Jungle NI, are sure to colour you human and banish those Winter Blues in no time!

2/ Change your perspective.

Rather than looking at things that make you blue why not cast your eyeballs on happier sights, like this cute lamb for example.

In fact, we reckon that being surrounded by cute and furry animals is what gives Jungle staff that mile in their smile!

3/ Take note from Disney.

Notice, for example, the luscious, flowing locks of Tarzan and his healthy, hearty glow as his flies from tree to tree roaring indifference at the lofty heights and deadly depths to which he might fall. You too could be coloured courageous adventurer; simply book onto The Jungle’s Tarzan Tree Top Adventure Course and put your roar to the test.

4/ Keep your eye on the target.

Setting goals is an essential walking aid on the route to achieving dreams, but in order to survive the dander you’ll need to keep those eyeballs open and focused on your targets. Whether you’re aiming to become Archery champion or a the most feared Paintball fiend around The Jungle NI can offer both activity goal setting assistance and target achievement, all you need to do is book online at thejungleni.com!

Or, failing all of the above…

5/ Roll with it!

And what better way to roll than in Jungle style in a huge inflatable Zorbing ball! An exhilarating high-speed, downhill tumble encased in a hug inflatable sphere is guaranteed to help you out-speed those Winter Blues and sure to put a goofy grin back on your face. Don’t believe us? Then come find out for yourself!
