Auburn Outdoors

Auburn Outdoors is an adventure-based education program providing numerous avenues for outdoor recreation. We are excited to offer adventure trips, indoor climbing, and weekly events on and off campus. Programs will include backpacking, paddling, climbing, biking, a rental shop and more.

Auburn Outdoors is located in the Recreation and Wellness Center. Within the new outdoor center, you will find equipment rentals, a bike shop, trip planning resources and a social gathering locale. 

Extended trips over university holidays will include regional and national destinations. Most trips are organized by our trained student leaders.
