The Cedarburg Bog, a State Natural Area and National Natural Landmark, is a unique and diverse ecosystem. Among its wonders, it contains the southernmost string bog in North America. See what makes The Cedarburg Bog so special by walking with a noted naturalist on the University Trail, a boardwalk only available to guided visitors. This 1.5 mile, round-trip journey takes you deep into the Bog with opportunities to discover many of its treasures, including carnivorous plants and many native species of plants and birds that are on the southern edge of their range. Visitors to the Cedarburg Bog often remark that there is a discovery around every corner, and those interested in nature photography will find lots of interesting subjects.

The morning session's guide is Jim Reinartz, who has worked in, and studied, the Bog for 44 years. He wrote a guide to the natural history of the Bog and teaches about the native plant communities of Wisconsin.
