VETERANS OUTDOOR CHALLENGE

JUL 15 – AUG 8, 2026

The Challenge

Time in nature isn't optional. It's fuel. The Veterans Outdoor Challenge runs July 15 - August 8.

25 days to get outside, move, and share the adventure with your community. This is to honor 250 years of USA with 25 days of outdoor adventure.

From hiking and kayaking to walking clubs, adaptive sports, and mindfulness, everyone is welcome. Even a moment under the open sky counts. Spending time outdoors reduces stress, improves heart health, boosts mood, and builds lasting connections. This is your call to adventure.
