Rim of the World Highway

A popular alpine drive route, 101 miles long, running from San Bernardino to Big Bear Lake.

Reviewed By outthere2017 - Los Angeles, United States

This was a fun drive from Hwy 15 at Cajon Pass to Big Bear. Folowed 38 to 18 to 30 in Big Bear. Beautiful Fall colors and huge breathtaking views of the valleys. Lots of tight curves and turns keep you at sightseeing speed with lots of turnouts. Several lakes along the way to see and visit. Arrowhead is almost impossible to see because of the buildings in the way, but, the other lakes are beautiful. End at Big Bear lake and drive thru Fawnskin for the best views.

Santa Ana River Trail

Scenic ride through the San Bernardino Mountains, perfect for beginners into spectacular mountain views without the rougher terrain.

Reviewed By BSpatt - Placentia, United States

I was looking for a safe stretch of road to ride my new RadPowerBike (love those bikes!) and I didn't want to deal with traffic, lights, and cars. The Santa Ana river trail is the perfect solution. Two lanes wide, with great visibility in every direction. Its long enough - beach to the mountains... although I only did a 20 mile trek. What I wasn't expecting was the wildlife up around the Yorba Linda part of the trail. It was really fun to watch the various water birds as I rode by. At no point did I feel unsafe (I rode during the day). Highly recommended.
