There are small amounts of caving in Laois, Kilkenny and Tipperary. Clare and Cork would be the easiest large scale areas for you to get to.
For climbing there is a good bolted quarry outside Kilkenny city.
There are a good few paddling clubs in Kilkenny, Sorry I do not know much about what there is in Laois.

Well, you could scale the majestic snow-capped peaks of Laois, abseil down the cliffs of Laois, whitewater-paddle down the surging torrential floodwaters in the canyons of Laois, surf the pounding waves on the beaches of Laois, and...oh, wait, I see what you mean.

There's an active kayaking club in Durrow , Laois.
