The Outdoor Adventure and Alternative Sports Strategic Plan builds upon the vision in Denver’s Game Plan for a Healthy City to create a 20-year strategic framework that diversifies current recreation opportunities by providing new ways to engage with and recreate in the outdoors. The plan builds upon the vision in Denver’s ‘Game Plan for a Healthy City’ to create a 20-year strategic framework that diversifies current recreation opportunities by providing new ways to engage with and recreate in the outdoors. Livable Cities Studio led collaborative planning and engagement efforts to develop this plan, which will help DPR address issues of equitable access to outdoor recreation and position Denver as the premier city for outdoor adventure. The plan suggests deliberate, transformative enhancements framed by four focus areas: Increased Participation; Progressive and Inclusive Programming; Access and Transportation; and Communications and Education. Each focus area has associated strategies at a person, neighborhood, or city and mountain scale. This project received a Colorado American Planning Association (APA) Award in 2023!
