Big Bear Speedway

New at Big Bear Speedway is a two-story, high-octane obstacle course that towers 35 feet off the ground call Big Bear Ropes Course. This state-of-the-art aerial adventure allows participants of varying ages, from young children to adult, to face an array of challenges and features. Big Bear Ropes Course stretches over 6,400 square feet with many of its features exposed to nothing but air!

There are a variety of suspension bridges, some with wide-open gaps, some with nothing but two-inch round cables to scramble across, yet another that overhangs on a curving structure with dangling ropes to grasp onto. All in all there are 42 different obstacles on this towering two-level ropes course. There’s even an airborne element for those who wish to fly. The Sky Rail Zipline stretches 80 feet and bananas out onto a ledge, enhancing the overall excitement.
