Zurich Bog, National Natural Landmark in Arcadia, United States
The Zurich Bog spans 490 acres of sphagnum wetland between drumlin hills, featuring diverse plant species including northern white cedar and black spruce.
The land became protected on December 10, 1957, when Lyman Stuart and the Newark School District donated it to the Bergen Swamp Preservation Society.
Scientists have conducted research at Zurich Bog since the 19th century, studying its pH-based biodiversity and ecological characteristics.
Access to Zurich Bog requires permission from the Bergen Swamp Society, as this natural landmark maintains restricted entry for conservation purposes.
The wetland contains both bog and fen characteristics, with soil layers of marl deposits from its previous existence as an open lake.
