Big Bear Lake is the perfect destination for your mountain biking and road biking mountain vacation. Located in the beautiful San Bernardino National Forest, Big Bear has everything you are looking for in a local getaway. Only a two hour drive from Los Angeles, it’s easy to find a cheap cabin rental or a luxury cabin rental for a weekend road trip. We are happy to have Big Bear Lake be the home of the Tour de Big Bear.
Tour de Big Bear is starting Saturday, August 1, 2025. It features mountain bike rides with four different length routes; 25, 50, 70 and 100 miles. Activities start in Big Bear Village near the lake.
Tour de Big Bear lets you enjoy a spectacular mountain ride in the fresh mountain air and escape the heat of the summer! Signage and law enforcement will be posted at all major intersections, and aid stations for hydration and refueling will be found along the way. 70 and 100 mile riders automatically get entered into the “King/Queen of the Mountain” with a 7 mile climb to the top of Onyx Summit for cash and prizes.
