Moonlight & Mountain Medicine
Night Hike and Sound Bath Experience
Experience Big Bear After Dark.
Reconnect Beneath the Moonlight.
Step away from the noise of everyday life and experience the mountains in a whole new way. This intimate evening experience combines a guided night hike through the forest with a restorative sound bath, creating a peaceful opportunity to connect with nature, slow down, and be fully present.
Join Big Bear Hiking Adventures and Indigo Mountain Wellness Center for an evening designed to awaken your senses and quiet your mind. As the sun sets and the forest settles into darkness, you’ll discover a different side of Big Bear…one filled with nighttime sounds, moonlit trails, and the peaceful energy of the mountains after dark.
Your Evening Experience
Guided Night Hike
Your evening begins with a guided hike through the forest after dark. Led by experienced hiking guides, this nighttime adventure offers a chance to experience the mountain landscape in a completely different way.
As we make our way through the forest, we’ll take time to notice the sights and sounds of the mountains at night. You may hear wildlife moving through the trees, feel the cool evening air, or catch glimpses of the landscape illuminated by moonlight.
This isn’t about rushing through the trail. It’s about experiencing the journey, being aware of your surroundings, and discovering the peaceful beauty of Big Bear after dark.
A Sound Bath Beneath the Stars
Along the way, we’ll pause our hike and settle into a 30-minute guided sound bath led by Indigo Mountain Wellness Center.
When we reach our stopping point, you’ll lay out the small blanket you brought with you and get comfortable beneath the night sky. Surrounded by the quiet of the forest, you’ll have the opportunity to breathe deeply, relax, and let the calming vibrations of the sound bath create space to simply be present.
Then, when the sound bath comes to an end, we’ll gather ourselves and continue our hike through the forest, carrying that sense of calm and connection with us as we make our way back.
It’s a chance to experience the mountains in two different ways: moving through the forest under the moonlight, then pausing long enough to truly take it all in.
