Eight Dollar Mountain Botanical Wayside Boardwalk is a short boardwalk that is wheelchair accessible with two overlooks that give great views over one of the larger, more easily accessible fens in the Illinois Valley. The fen is home to a unique carnivorous plant, the California pitcher plant (Darlingtonia californica). This is a great little trail to take kids on and to link with the nearby Jeffrey Pine Loop Trail and Little Falls Loop Trail if you want to lengthen your hike and explore other diverse ecosystems.
