Welcome!

Whether you’re new to the outdoors or are ready for your next adventure, Ample Access Outdoors provides a safe, inclusive space for you to enjoy nature and build community.

We are dedicated to making outdoor recreation fun and accessible for all sizes, abilities, and backgrounds. At Ample Access Outdoors, all are welcome and no one is ever left behind.

Our Purpose

We believe the outdoors belong to everyone. It sounds simple, but society has put up many barriers that can make us think otherwise. Limited to no recreation equipment in larger sizes. Trails that are not ADA compliant. Guides who discriminate against those in marginalized bodies. We’ve experienced it all, and we’re determined to do something about it.

Ample Access Outdoors aims to break down societal barriers and foster a love of nature for those who’ve felt excluded just for being who they are. We approach every activity, from guided hikes to kayaking and snowshoeing, with inclusivity, adaptability, and safety in mind. Along the way, we build lasting friendships and develop the confidence to do more outdoors.

We offer guided recreation activities, online and hybrid courses, and customized curricula that prioritize accessibility for all. Check out our programs and services to learn more!
