Mark your calendar for June 19-23, 2024

for Highlander USA's annual backpacking adventure in Big Bear!

Zen out and get in touch with your inner self while exploring the beautiful San Bernardino Mountains on this outdoor extravaganza. Your backpacking journey will include inspiring elements at the check points, like yoga classes, book presentations, music and more. 

This is not a race! It's a chance to challenge yourself, disconnect from your electronics, while refreshing your soul in nature, breathing clean air and feeling earth elements. Meet like-minded campers and travelers, sit by the campfire and gaze at the magnificent full moon, wake up to birdsong, stretch and move your body because it's going to be a amazing escapade, ahhhhhh.

Choose your challenge, from 1 day (approximately 15 miles) to 5 days (approximately 60 miles). For information, pricing, required gear and more, visit the Highlander Adventure website.
