Adventure opportunities, landscape richness, nature preservation and comfort have all been analysed
We love the city at Time Out, but that doesn’t mean we don’t appreciate some off-the-beaten track adventure. And now, a brand-new ranking has shed some light on the greatest outdoor travel destinations the world has to offer.
KÜHL has unveiled its Global Outdoor Destination Index, which has analysed 183 countries on 12 different metrics under the umbrella of adventure opportunities, landscape richness, nature preservation and comfort and peace. Claiming the crown as the world’s best outdoor travel destination is (drum roll, please) Australia!
Recommended: This underrated country has been named the world’s best adventure destination for 2025. 
We know, shocker. Australia performed well in all outdoor categories, ranking first for nature preservation. There are 12 UNESCO Natural World Heritage Sites, after all. Oh, and that’s on top of the fact that around 25 percent of its land and 45 percent of its marine territory is protected. 
In second place was the USA, thanks to its sheer scale and the diversity of landscapes it encompasses, from bayous to glacial valleys, and in third place it was New Zealand, with Canada and France rounding out the top 5. 
Did you see that these five quiet, beautiful European islands have avoided overtourism?
Plus: The otherworldly destination named Europe’s best place for a road trip.
