Outdoor Adventures

The FSU Lakefront Park & Retreat Center is a great place to relax and enjoy the outdoors. And, it’s FREE for FSU students! You can visit anytime we’re open and plan your adventure from sand volleyball to swimming, kayaking to stand-up paddleboarding. Or, reserve some space outdoors under one of our shade pavilions or indoors in our retreat center for your group. Need a ride? Call the Leach Center at 850-644-0548 to catch a ride to and from the park. Available Saturdays and Sundays only.

Outdoor Pursuits is FSU’s outdoor adventure program. We travel all over the Southeast with single day and weekend to great outdoor adventure destinations. And, we stay local with shorter excursions from campus. Every adventure is unique, and each offers an opportunity to develop new skills, enhance your appreciation of the wilderness, adapt to new and challenging situations, and build lifelong relationships.

Here at FSU Challenge, experiential education, safety, and fun are at the heart of everything we do, whether you’re 40 feet in the air on our high ropes course, a couple feet off the ground on the low course, or fully on the ground in an express teambuilding program.

We can develop an interactive, experiential teambuilding program customized to meet your specific needs. Many unique groups utilize the course, including FSU organizations, community groups, businesses, and beyond. Your team could be the next to conquer the course, register today!
