Private Recreation
Approximately 97% of land in Nebraska is privately
owned. Some privately owned properties provide
recreation to the public for a fee. These areas include
campgrounds, golf courses, zoos, adventure courses,
and hunting and fishing areas.
As these are not public lands, it is difficult to
quantify the resources provided. Therefore, these
resources are not included as part of this look at the
supply of outdoor recreation in Nebraska.
When considering current outdoor recreation
supply for development planning, it is important to
recognize the local private opportunities available.
This helps to understand the full outdoor recreation
picture, informing development decisions.
