Outdoor Adventures
RecSports Outdoor Adventures is outdoor recreation programming designed to meet the recreational needs of the adventurer in all of us. We offer several trips per year including white water rafting, rock climbing, and backpacking. RecSports also offers an equipment rental program to help the Notre Dame community take on their own adventures. For those looking for a more social aspect to outdoor recreation, check out existing club sports that have taken their adventuring to the next level.
Trips
From whitewater rafting to downhill skiing, Outdoor Adventures plans several annual trips for the Notre Dame community to get students, faculty, and staff out and about. These trips are designed to enhance the Notre Dame experience and create friendships while enjoying an adventure off-campus.
