Our Great Outdoors – The Outdoor Recreation Action Plan for Northern Ireland

This new seven-year Action Plan to 2020 to continue to develop outdoor recreation was coordinated by a Steering Group comprising a range of Government organisations, Outdoor Recreation Northern Ireland and land owning representatives.

This coordinated approach demonstrates a strong commitment to realise the value of the outdoors. It provides key recommendations for actions and challenges that need to be addressed to make Northern Ireland a place where outdoor recreation can deliver:

Healthy active lifestyles for local people from all communities

Economic growth through encouraging visitors to come and enjoy the outdoors

Protection of landscapes and ecosystems for future generations
