An annual event, the Utah Outdoor Recreation Summit focuses on how we strengthen outdoor recreation communities, the outdoor recreation economy, and improve health and quality of life for all Utahns. The Summit is a space that elevates the crucial conversation about the importance of outdoor recreation for the economy, health, quality of life and so much more. It is a place to greet old friends, convene about issues, create new partnerships and play outdoors together. Join us!

We’ll have everyone’s favorites: awesome outdoor activities, a delicious kickoff dinner, educational and inspiring content, the Outdoor Market, a stewardship project, and networking opportunities galore!
