About this Event
What do past and current trends in outdoor recreation tell us about how to prepare for the future? What determines the next “big thing” in outdoor recreation? What role will the outdoors play in contributing to good health and wellbeing?
These questions will be explored at the upcoming ORN two-day conference hosted by Dartmoor National Park Authority, forecasting outdoor recreation trends and insights for the next decade. Given the pace of change in the sector this is a timely occasion to gather leaders across the outdoor recreation industry and consider how to plan for and manage future challenges and opportunities.
