Minnesota Outdoor Recreation Industry Partnership

Minnesota’s Outdoor Recreation Industry Partnership (ORIP) is a collaboration between Explore Minnesota Tourism, the Department of Natural Resources, the Department of Employment and Economic Development, and Iron Range Resources and Rehabilitation.

This Partnership was established in spring 2023 following recommendations from the Minnesota Outdoor Recreation Task Force and the Governor’s Council on Economic Expansion. The partnership’s mission is to support the sustainable and equitable growth of Minnesota’s outdoor recreation economy by supporting the outdoor recreation industry.
