Alpine Pedal Path

This is the best and easiest way to visit the lake in my opinion. The pedal path is great for biking, jogging or walking. It’s paved the entire way with two way traffic, so it’s great for young kids on bikes and strollers! There are little pathways that shoot off the pedal path, leading down to the beach. The scenery is just gorgeous, there are a few benches and picnic tables along the way. Entirely pet friendly and family friendly, it’s fun for all!

Parking is not an issue if you come in later in the afternoon, but the hike can get crowded during peak hours. Follow signs towards the Pacific Crest Trail (the Cougar Crest Trail links up with the PCT). The path ...

Mountain Bike Pine Knot Trail in Big Bear

Park at the free parking lot behind the village off of Knickerbocker Rd between Village Drive and Pedder Road. Ride up Knickerbocker Rd towards the mountain. Look out for the fire service road 2N08 that veers left and uphill. The first 2 miles is challenging steep uphill, but beautiful nonetheless. The next 2 miles are uphill but not as steep.

Rock Climb Holcomb Valley

Most of the drive to Holcomb Valley is done on regular paved roads until about the last hour when you get above Big Bear Lake and you start your journey on dirt roads. The road is extremely bumpy and has lots of pot holes but there are generally quite a few cars up there that don't have 4 wheel drive. There's great instructions on which dirt roads to take on Mountain Project .The trailhead to g...

Grand View Point is accessed via Pine Knot Trail, a 6.5 mile out and back hiking trail located at the Aspen Glen Picnic Area, 1 mile from Big Bear Village. With its close proximity to town, Pine Knot Trail is popular in the summer with mountain bikers and the trailhead is often crowded in the winter with young families paying and sledding in the snow.
