I checked into all the subcategories and on the last one I got the badge, which so happens to be a state park but was tagged as a campground.

I've had trouble with this badge, but I've seen it unlocked by someone else at St James Park, London.

@chrispinnock we put alot of work into the unlock instructions. If you follow them you will get the badge.

I'll just have to keep heading to the beach nearby then. I kept thinking you could unlock it at a venue with a main category of Park but it wasn't to be.

Chaunce

The directions above don't mention it needing to have the main category of Park.

Unlock instructions updated to reflect new "level up" ability

This badge is as much of an enigma to level up as it was to get it. I'm thinking it takes a certain combination of outdoor venues, and I'm not quite sure what it is. I've not checked into many outdoor venues since I originally unlocked it, but when the experience badges came out, I was at level 4. Any ideas?

iamc

I was checking into BEACHES Brandon (for swimmies) and popped another level in Great Outdoors instead! LOL

Brandon

Swimmies is easy at pools. I finally leveled up Great Outdoors after 7 hiking trails and a lake.

choad17

I used scenic outlooks got mine to level 10

BonsaiCat

Check in at beaches or lakes and you will level up Great Outdoors and Swimmied badges at the same time ;)

Brandon

5 lakes finally worked for both badges for me as well. YAY!

Howdy, Stranger!
