With picnics and memorable activities outdoors

Summer is synonymous with picnics and memorable activities outdoors, with good company and delicious food.

Is the sentence natural to native English speakers?

I cannot understand especially the use of outdoors in the sentence. What does it modify and is it used as an adverb or noun?

What do you native English speakers think?

Thank you so much as usual in advance!

'Outdoors' is being used as the name of a place, as in 'the great outdoors' . It's a pretty casual use of 'synonymous' but the sentence would be understood. It reads like a piece of advertising copy.
