2022 Outdoor Participation Report

Introduction

In 2021, 164.2M or 54% of Americans ages 6 and over participated in outdoor recreation at least once, the highest number of participants on record. As the COVID-19 pandemic continued into a second year and vaccines became available most restrictions were lifted.

The outdoor participant base grew 6.9% since March 2020.
