The Cedarburg Bog is located in the Town of Saukville, Wisconsin, about 30 miles (45 minutes) north of Milwaukee and 1 hour 45 minutes from Madison.


Public Parking at Cedarburg Bog
There is public parking at the north end of the bog (from the intersection of County Highway Y and State Highway 33 in Newburg, go east on 33 2.6 miles to a parking area on the south side of the road). A short trail system with boardwalks leads to a pier at Watts Lake.

There is also public access on the south boundary of the bog (go south on Y 4.2 miles,then east on Cedar-Sauk Road, 0.75 miles to a pull-off on the north side of the road). There is a boggy, unimproved trail to Mud Lake that could be used to launch a kayak or canoe into the lake. Watch for poison sumac along this trail! (and in the bog generally).
