An Afternoon in Big Bear Village

For an easy afternoon away from the cabin, head to the Village. Park once, make a loop around Village Drive and Pine Knot Avenue, then finish with dinner or takeout before heading back up to Upper Moonridge.

Start near Village Drive and Pine Knot Avenue

Use our Location page for driving directions to the Village and check Visit Big Bear’s parking and restroom information before leaving. Follow posted lot limits and any event closures. If you’d rather ride in from another stop, see our free trolley guide.

Leave time to browse

Pick up a coffee or a treat and give the group time to look around. Destination Big Bear’s shopping guide can help you pick a few stops. Agree on a place to meet before splitting up, especially if you have a dinner reservation.

Finish with dinner or a show

Use our Big Bear Restaurant Guide to choose dinner and call ahead if you have a large group. To see whether there’s a performance during your trip, check the city’s Performing Arts Center page and confirm the venue before heading over.

Stay at Edgar’s Hideaway

Our five-bedroom cabin in Upper Moonridge gives families room to spend the day together or go their separate ways and meet back for dinner.
