Bunker Hill Bogs is a quiet trail area in the middle of Jackson. The main Purple Heart Trail runs along the water through pine forest, with side paths that lead between two small lakes and out to a raised observation deck.

The trail is sandy in spots and shared with horses. You can keep a walk short or link loops for a few miles.
