took a hike with 2 of my grandchildren today, this place they rate very cool. trimbleoutdoors.com zoom in you will see bog 2 PONKAPOAG BOG BOARDWALK. The massive slabs of wood chained together in a zigzagging pattern buck and bounce (and sometimes sink) under your feet. But the boardwalk takes you into a fascinating area -- an Atlantic white cedar bog. Carved out by a glacier, this is as close as you get to ''Swamp Thing" territory around these parts. Green moss glows unnaturally in the undergrowth and if you're lucky, you might spot a carnivorous pitcher, sundew, or bladderwort plant. You indeed will get a sinking feeling if you stray from the boardwalk, but if you make it to the end, you are rewarded with a view of Ponkapoag Pond. (Tip: The Appalachian Mountain Club has 20 cabins for rent on the east side of the pond. Very rustic.)
