Our Scouting America Camp is
your refuge across 1 square mile of mighty
ponderosa forest & tranquil meadows.
30 min from Big Bear & your gateway to San Gorgonio. Camp Tahquitz is the premier Boy Scout Summer Camp for scouts wanting to experience high adventure, earn merit badges, and explore outdoor activities from the traditional to the extreme. Owned and operated by the Long Beach Area Council

since 1959, the camp is one square mile (640 acres) of pristine forest land in the Barton Flats area of the San Bernardino Mountains about 30 minutes south of Big Bear Lake and less than three hours from most cities in Southern California. Staffed by Honor Scouts and experienced scouting professionals, Camp Tahquitz is the place where memories are made that last a lifetime. In addition to traditional merit badge courses, camp activities include — archery, rifle shooting, rowing; canoeing, backpacking, climbing & rappelling, nature studies, horseback riding and camp craft, just to name a few.
