Leashed dogs are welcome on every national forest trail, including the Woodland and Pine Knot trails around Big Bear.
Official swim beaches are for people only.
A 6-foot leash is required in developed recreation areas like campgrounds, picnic areas, and trailheads. On the general forest and most trails there is no leash law, but your dog must be under control at all times.
Service animals are allowed where pets are not, under the ADA. A leash is still required.
