Adventure Location Lab

What is an Adventure Score?

One number, 0 to 100, that tells you how much adventure lives around an address — before you ever drive out to see it.

It measures the life outside the walls

Bedrooms and square footage tell you about the house. The Adventure Score tells you about everything around it — the trails you can ride from the driveway, the water you can paddle after work, the snow you can reach before the lifts open, and the open space between you and all of it.

Built from what's actually there

The score looks at real outdoor access around a specific location: trail networks, rivers and lakes, parks and public land, and how quickly you can get from your front door to the things you love to do. Closer, bigger, and more varied adventure means a higher score.

From Basecamp to Adventure

A high score means the home can be your basecamp: a launch point for a life spent outside. A lower score doesn't mean a bad home — it means the adventures live a little farther from the front door, and we'll tell you exactly where.

Reading the score

90–100

Adventure at the doorstep — trailheads, water or public land effectively out the front door.

80–89

A true basecamp — multiple kinds of adventure within a few minutes.

70–79

Weekend-ready — solid access with a short drive to the good stuff.

Below 70

City comforts first — adventure is a planned outing rather than a daily habit.
