Nine miles north of Waskish is a raised aluminum boardwalk that stretches across the bog which allows visitors to explore one mile (1.6 km) into the “islands” of spruce within the bog, as well as the open wetlands. Numerous signs identify aspects of the bog, including pitcher plants and an early failed attempt at draining the swamp lands. The boardwalk is handicap accessible. Wheelchairs and strollers roll easily on specially designed panels that allow vegetation to grow underneath. The boardwalk is a comfortable walk, with several benches along the way to stop and enjoy the peacefulness of the Big Bog.
