I would like to enjoy the outdoors but I have autism. Do you think this will impede my ability to have fun outdoors? Are there outdoor groups for people with much autism?

>Are there outdoor groups for people with much autism?
Either /out/ or /k/ would work.

I don't know if there are groups (other than /out/, that is), but it certainly shouldn't impede things.
I seem to remember reading somewhere that a few studies suggested time spent out was actually beneficial for people with things like autism and ADD.
So go for it.

People who love the outdoors are probably autistic anyways.

I have Aspergers and i went to a ramblers club (which is basically a club for doing outdoor walks) when I was younger. They were mostly old folk which wasn't a suprise, but I got on with them well since they were talkative about outdoor related topics, and older people generally don't tend to be judgemental at all.
I was also lucky to have a foraging expert in the group who'd occasionally give us all helpful info about edible berries and fungi, as well as building outdoor fires.
It was really fun for the time I had there, and I positively believe that the experience itself of having an interest to share with other while doing a related activity has helped me appreciate the outdoors even more than I already did. I'm currently studying mycology.
