According to the analysis, the physical activity of the places for recreational purposes which the Kahramanmaraş municipality has done for recreational purposes and the elements that prevent the participation in physical activity from choosing physical activity are significantly different according to the variable of gender and civic state. The elements that prevent participation in physical activity in the lower dimensions are significant differences in the age, occupation and variation when the participants are attributed to the activity. It has been established that there is no significant difference between whether the recreation areas of the municipalities are sufficient, the income status of the participants, with whom they participate in the activity, whether the free time is sufficient, the reasons that lead to the recreation activities and the effects they leave on the participants. As a result, the municipalities should create the necessary work and sub-structure to make the recreational areas suitable for physical activity in accordance with the wishes and desires of the public.
