Tannersville Cranberry Bog, Protected wetland in Tannersville, United States.
The Tannersville Cranberry Bog contains dense layers of sphagnum moss and peat stretching over 150 acres in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania.
The formation began 13,000 years ago when the Wisconsin Glacier retreated, creating a kettle lake that transformed into a bog through natural processes.
The Nature Conservancy acquired the initial 62 acres in 1957, following William Niering's environmental conservation efforts to protect this natural habitat.
The Monroe County Conservation District conducts guided walks from May to November along a 1,450-foot floating boardwalk made of treated lumber and recycled materials.
The site represents the southernmost boreal bog in eastern North America, housing black spruce trees, carnivorous pitcher plants, and rare Pennsylvania orchids.
