Creating Access. Building Opportunity. Inspiring Adventure.

Outdoor Access Project is a Utah-based nonprofit dedicated to helping individuals with mobility challenges experience the outdoors through adaptive recreation opportunities, scholarship support, and community-driven programs.

We believe access to nature, adventure, and outdoor experiences should not be limited by mobility barriers. Every person deserves the opportunity to explore, participate, and create lasting memories outdoors.

Our Mission

Expanding Outdoor Access for Everyone

Outdoor Access Project exists to remove barriers that prevent individuals with mobility challenges from experiencing the outdoors. Through scholarship programs, adaptive recreation initiatives, community partnerships, and accessibility-focused efforts, we work to create more opportunities for individuals and families to participate in outdoor adventures throughout Utah.

Our mission is simple: To help more people experience the freedom, connection, and confidence that the outdoors can provide.

Why We Started

Because Access Shouldn't Stop at the Trailhead

For many individuals living with mobility challenges, outdoor recreation can require specialized equipment, additional support, and opportunities that are not always readily available. While many people enjoy Utah's mountains, trails, parks, and outdoor spaces, others face barriers that can make participation difficult or impossible.

Rather than simply raising awareness, we focus on creating direct opportunities that help individuals get outside, participate in activities, and experience adventures that may have previously felt out of reach.

The Impact We Hope to Create

A Future With More Access and More Opportunity

We envision a future where individuals with mobility challenges have greater access to outdoor recreation, stronger community support, and more opportunities to participate in the experiences that matter most to them.

Whether it is a family exploring a trail together, a first outdoor adventure, or a new sense of independence, every opportunity created has the potential to change lives. That is the impact we work toward every day.

Stronger Together

We work alongside individuals, families, donors, volunteers, community organizations, and industry partners who share a commitment to creating greater outdoor accessibility. These partnerships help expand our reach, strengthen our programs, and create more opportunities for those we serve.

Adventure Belongs to Everyone

Access to the outdoors should not be determined by mobility limitations. Through community support, direct action, and a commitment to inclusion, we are working to create more opportunities for individuals and families to experience the outdoors with confidence, freedom, and dignity.
