Black Tern Bog is located in southwest Vilas County, approximately 3.5 miles (5.6 km) northwest of Arbor Vitae. Access is via an unnamed dirt road off US Highway 51, north of the bog. The road wraps around the northern and eastern portions of the bog. It is also possible to park on the shoulder of US Highway 51, which passes along the western edge of the bog.[3]
