South River Bog

Easy Dog friendly Parking available Scenic views

Located in Duxbury, South River Bog is a 100 acre property with natural wetland habitats. This trail system is perfect for hiking. It has been dormant since the early 1900s and has slowly reverted to forest and marsh in the time since, giving it a quieter, more overgrown feel than some of the town's more manicured trail systems. Also explore Whiton Woods and Cedar Crest and Historic O’Neil Farm, other trails in Duxbury. Try Historic O’Neil Farm for a similar trail experience featuring wetland.
