Outdoor Activities Grade 12 2nd Semester 4th Quarter

 Outdoor recreation or recreation means spending free time outdoors, mostly in natural environments. 










Activities related to outdoor activities vary depending on the physical environment in which they are practiced. 

These activities can include fishing, hunting, camping, hiking and horseback riding - and can be done alone or together. 

Outdoor recreation is a broad term that encompasses a variety of activities and landscapes.


Outdoor activities are typically practiced for exercise, general well-being, and spiritual renewal.

[1] Although many outdoor activities can be classified as sports, not all require the participant to be an athlete. Rather, it is a collectivist idea 

[2] that is most important in outdoor recreation, as recreation may not involve the same degree of rivalry or competition as sports competitions or championships. Competition is generally less strenuous than organized individual or team sports.

[a] When the activity involves extreme excitement, physical challenge or risk, it is sometimes called adventure training or adventure training rather than extreme sports.


Other examples of traditional outdoor activities include 

hiking, 

camping, 

mountain climbing, 

biking, 

dog walking, 

kayaking, 

caving, 

kayaking, 

rafting, 

rock climbing, 

running, 

sailing, 

skiing, 

skydiving, and 

surfing. 

When new hobbies appear, often intersecting with previous ones, they acquire their own identity, such as beaching, kayaking, fast packing and blogging. 

[3 ] These include natural parks, parks, playgrounds, sports facilities, and also areas with free access to the sea.


Outdoor recreation involves any kind of activity within an outdoor environment.[4] 

Outdoor recreation can include established sports, and individuals can participate without association with teams, competitions or clubs.[5] 


Activities include backpacking, canoeing, canyoning, caving, climbing, 

hiking, hill walking, hunting, kayaking, and rafting.[6] 


Broader groupings include water sports, snow sports, and horseback riding.[6]


People engage in physical activity outdoors as a form of recreation.[7] 

Various physical activities can be completed individually or communally.[8] 

Sports which are mainly played indoors or other settings such as fields are able to transition to an outdoor setting for recreational and non-competitive purposes. 

Outdoor physical activities can help people learn new skills, test stamina and endurance, and participate in social activities.[9][10]

Outdoor activities are also frequently used as a setting for education and team building.[11]

the importance of outdoor activities

Recreational activity has numerous benefits. It can contribute to physical health by reducing symptoms, promoting weight reduction, and improving cardiovascular health . It also supports broader recovery goals, including social inclusion .

Recreational activities can make the lives of vulnerable young people more meaningful and serve as an alternative treatment therapy for those with a background of drug and alcohol use . 

Additionally, participation in recreational activities can provide individuals with a healthy outlet for dealing with job-related and other life stressors, which is particularly important for people with disabilities . 

Furthermore, reasonable recreational exercise, carried out within limits of comfort and without underlying joint abnormality, need not inevitably lead to joint injury . 
Overall, recreational activity offers physical, social, and psychological benefits, making it an important component of personal well-being and development.
