After Valentines Trial Ride

Get OUTSIDE

Big Bear to Pioneer Town (02/15/2025)

 

Men, bring your girlfriend, fiance, and family and join us on Saturday February 15th on this 22 mile trail going from the pine forests of Big Bear to the desert and Joshua Trees.   The trail drops over 2000 feet with wonderful views and changing terrain. There are some narrow sections, but the road is typically well-graded. We will end the trip at an old Hollywood western film set at Pioneertown.  The Cisco Kid, the Gene Autry Show, Riders in the Sky and many more wester shows and movies were filmed in Pioneertown.  Check it out here - https://visitpioneertown.com/

 

As we will be starting in Big Bear, there may be snow and you may be required to have/put on chains to get up there.  And.... There may be time to play in the snow :)

 

Bring your family, bring friends, bring your sweetheart and make it a fun time.
