Outside publishes stories about adventure sports, gear, travel, fitness, health, culture, and the environment. We’re always on the lookout for reporting, essays, service pieces, and media reviews focused on the outdoor world. Because outdoor adventure writing has historically highlighted predominantly white male voices and subjects, we are interested in women, BIPOC, LGBT+, and other diverse voices and subjects. Find more information here about the stories we’re looking for and how to pitch them.
Since 1977 Outside has been about one simple idea: To inspire active participation in the world Outside. With in-depth narrative storytelling, profiles, video, and authoritative service, we explore the intersection between our lives and the natural world. Our writers bring their unique expertise and humor to the biggest stories across our multiple platforms. We hope you're inspired to get outside. There's no place like it!
