Urban Outdoors Introduction

National Outdoors created an initiative called Urban Outdoors. We're covering Outdoor Recreation Areas in, and around, major metropolitan areas. The idea is to promote awareness of outdoor areas in close proximity to a major population centers. Most of us live, work and play in big cities, and we play outside. The park you jog in, the trail you bike on or the stream you kayak on is not as famous as Yellowstone, but it's the place you enjoy the outdoors... the Urban Outdoors. Please share your favorite outdoor spots near large cities. These can be anywhere you can enjoy outdoor recreation, i.e., parks, rivers, lakes, state parks, forests, trails, national parks, wetlands, etc. Posting on National Outdoors is Quick and Easy.
