# Big Bear Lake

Known for its idyllic scenery, four seasons of recreational activities and 300 days of sunshine a year, Big Bear Lake offers tremendous adventures in the heart of the San Bernardino Mountains. Located 156 kilometres west of sunny Los Angeles, this premier resort community is the perfect vacation destination for outdoor enthusiasts. Ski the slopes, hike the challenging trails, spend lazy days fishing or indulge in some retail therapy in the eclectic shops. From popular film locations to secluded wilderness reserves, there is a world of possibilities on and off the beaten track.
Whether you prefer camping under the stars or relaxing poolside at a resort, accommodations abound at Big Bear Lake. Lodges such as Snow Lake and Hillcrest offer rooms with lake views, while campgrounds at Pine Knot and Serrano have reasonable daily rates. Cabin rentals are available year-round, while The Club at Big Bear Village offers red-carpet treatment if you're looking for more luxurious accommodations.
When you venture into the untamed wilderness around Big Bear Lake, picturesque vistas, quiet refuges and Hollywood film locations await. Beneath the towering pines of Bluff Lake Reserve, cool off and take a break from the urban hustle and bustle as you explore filming locations from Disney's ‘Twins Game’. Hike, bike or skate along the paved Alpine Pedal Path. And remember to look up at the sky from time to time: this route is known for its frequent sightings of bald eagles. For inspiring views of Big Bear Lake, hike the 4.2-kilometre trail to the Castle Rock exit. At 152 metres high, it's the perfect spot for photo ops and midday picnics.
