We're Connecting People and the Forest
The Big Bear Discovery Center is your gateway to adventure and discovery in the great outdoors. The Center is an
educational and informational portal to the San Bernardino National Forest and is located within the heart of the
Big Bear Valley. This nearby oasis is a one- to three-hour drive from anywhere in Southern California. Our goal is to
ensure your visit to the Big Bear Discovery Center heightens your awareness on how to become a more
responsible caretaker of a national forest while increasing your enjoyment and knowledge of California’s most
recreated forestland, the San Bernardino National Forest.

Let our experts help you plan your next adventure.
