A Local's Favorite Hike in Big Bear with Lake Swimming Experience

About this activity

This is really a local's favorite hike in Big Bear that goes to one of the least known scenic lake viewpoints in Big Bear.

What is the best time to do after a sweaty summertime hike? Swim off a dock in the beautiful Big Bear Lake Harbor! The lake water is actually warmer to swim here than in the middle of the lake. One thing a lot of travelers don't know, if you rent a boat on Big Bear Lake (Very pricy) you can not swim off the rental boats. This is a great summertime experience after a hike on a hot day to get to cool off in alpine Big Bear Lake

If my guests would like to picnic off the boat afterwards they can bring lunch, beer, drinks. I will bring an ice chest for them to put their lunch in while we are hiking. I will even walk to a nearby fantastic restaurant in the village (As a foodie, I know all the best restaurants in Big Bear) & pickup to-go lunches for my hikers to enjoy on the boat after the hike if requested (For this service, hikers must Venmo me to pay for their meals)

Meeting point

Everyone meets at the meeting point.

End point: My hikers can meet me at the corner of Mill Creek and Tulip. I'll be in a black Subaru SUV. From here they can follow me in my vehicle to the hiking destination. We will hike for about an hour, then my guests can follow me in their vehicle to the boat docked in the harbor a short distance away.
