Found on BLDGBLOG, as 'speleological superparks', an extremely interesting article on the form of architecture being discovered by private firms aiming to cash in on the growing appeal of outdoor activities for people who live within cities.
Fantastical architectural forms clinging to life on the side of other built forms, reminiscent of parasite, using the others energy for itself - but perhaps more similar to a symbiosis of mutual cooperation.

Or tube networks such as the British Caving Associations Artificial Caves by Entre Prises.

Whether this may be of use is yet to be seen, but with a project based in an area used for, and with thought processes around, outdoor activities, this typology may prove to be a useful route to follow (or a blind-alley).
