Big Bear Mountain Resort

SoCal’s Snow Capital

Big Bear Mountain Resort offers three distinct mountain experiences—Bear Mountain, Snow Summit, and Snow Valley—each with its own unique appeal.

Bear Mountain is where terrain parks were born, featuring an impressive 17 rideable miles of trails and world-class terrain parks for every ability level. Snow Summit is the heart of year-round family fun, boasting the largest beginner learning area in Southern California. Snow Valley, Southern California's longest-running ski resort, offers a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere with wide-open groomed runs, scenic terrain, and a legacy of welcoming generations of skiers and snowboarders.

FAMOUS TERRAIN

Big Bear Mountain Resort (BBMR) has pushed the progression of skiing and snowboarding for over 75 years. It featured North America’s first in-ground halfpipe at Snow Summit in the mid-80s, the world’s first terrain park at Bear Mountain in the early 90s, and hosted the inaugural Winter X Games in 1997.

Today, BBMR is still pushing limits on the slopes, with award-winning terrain parks and beginner programs, as well as Southern California’s only halfpipes, highest lift-served peak (8,805 ft), and largest learning areas.

Triple Your Fun

BBMR offers something for every skier and snowboarder, with three unique mountains to explore in a single day.
