The outdoors offers wonderful opportunities for outdoor recreation and perhaps the common bond is the enjoyment of the freedom and what individuals and groups experience in being together and closer to nature.

The freedom of the outdoors is a privilege which carries responsibilities for yourself and to respect others and to be responsible for the environment.

ABEL practitioners has also a privilege to use the outdoors as a classroom and various adventure recreation activities as a medium to develop and educate learners and to grow responsibilities This is one of the reasons why ARA create a home for all and bring providers of non motorised outdoor recreation opportunities together to discuss, decide and develop good practice to the benefit of all role players involved in the diverse Outdoor Recreation Industry.
