About Us
AdventureSmart, and its suite of five programs, is a national prevention program focused on reaching Canadians, and visitors to Canada, who participate in outdoor recreational activities.
AdventureSmart combines online and on-site awareness with targeted outreach in order to reduce the number and severity of Search and Rescue Incidents in Canada.
In order to provide the largest possible number of Canadians and visitors to Canada with consistent and relevant safety information, and to ensure that opportunities to engage the public are maximized, AdventureSmart and its partners take a broad, encompassing approach to the delivery of adaptable safety information in-person and online.
Through the collaborative efforts of our various partners, regional coordinators, and volunteers, AdventureSmart is dedicated to encouraging participants to “Get informed and go outdoors”.
Why Go Outdoors?

Having nature as your backdrop makes you feel less exertion while engaging in physical activity. If you are looking for a way to stay healthy without going to the gym or playing sports, head outside for a walk! Plus, it’s completely free – just make sure you’re properly equipped for the weather and type of activity.
3. SUNLIGHT
4. VISION
5. STRENGTHEN YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM
6. RELAXATION
7. ENHANCED CREATIVITY
8. FIGHT SEASONAL AFFECTIVE DISORDER
