Work continues on Ireland’s FIRST Alpine Coaster.

14 Jan 21 / News

Colin Glen is continuing to build its Future Vision, in accordance with government guidelines and rigorous safety measures, to complete its new world-class attractions including Ireland’s first Alpine Coaster.

Working alongside Martin Construction, remaining groundworks are currently being finalised including ticket office, car parking, kerbing and grass paver installation.

Despite the disruption to construction and the barriers for overseas contractors being able to complete works, Colin Glen has been working diligently within government guidelines to continue works on site, as efficiently and safely as possible.

Colin Glen CEO, Colin O’Neill said:

Despite the disruption caused by COVID 19 throughout 2020, we are continuing as best we can to proceed with the construction of our new attractions.


In the midst of one of our most challenging years to date, we have worked extremely hard to diversify our product offering. We will continue to create stand out experiences for our customers whilst showcasing our beautiful surroundings at the rise of the Belfast Hills.


We have grand ambitions to become the leading outdoor adventure centre in Ireland, and we have no doubt that our newest attractions, due to launch later this year, will help establish Colin Glen on the world stage.

Colin Glen is a charity, and we endeavour to continue our efforts to be the best and do the best for our local communities in the years ahead. If you would like to show your support to the organisation via donations or volunteering, find out more here.
